Given that mesa-opencl-icd is available everywhere, I would just take 
that as first alternative and drop beignet entirely.

The question is, if that should be downgraded to a
   Recommends: mesa-opencl-icd | opencl-icd
since the Depends only ensures that there is any opencl-icd installed, 
not neccessarily one that supports the hardware present in the machine.
And for libhmsbeagle1v5 having no opencl platform available (if no icd 
is installed) should not be different than having some platform but no 
devices available ...
