[Bug 607407] Re: Sync pyopencl 0.92~beta+git20100709-1 (multiverse) from Debian Unstable (contrib)

[Tomasz Rybak]

In Ubuntu all files related to NVIDIA drivers are in package nvidia-current.
I was able to build package after applying this patch:

The question is - should I try to have the same package in Debian and Ubuntu or 
For now X-team (responsible for NVIDIA packges) does not intend to split package to have situation similar to Debian,
so Debian and Ubuntu CUDA/OpenCL packages will need to differ in Deps/Build-Deps.

Status in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
PyOpenCL is Python wrapper around OpenCL libraries.

As it depends on NVIDIA driver-related packages, currently it is in Debian Unstable contrib.
As soon as there are another implementations of OpenCL available in Debian/Ubuntu, this package should be able to use them instead of NVIDIA ones.

Because of differences between NVIDIA-related packages in Debian and Ubuntu there is some work needed to allow for python-pyopencl to build on Ubuntu. I have tested its building and installation on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Thanks.
