That doesn't sound quite like what we need.

We provide one binary package.  With you patches we want it to run 
out-of-the-box with a GPU. But we also need it to run out-of-the-box 
without a GPU.
Without needing to set environment variables.

It's not clear from your description that this is the case.

Install python3-sasmodel on a system with a GPU. Does it use the GPU and 
run faster?
Install python3-sasmodel on a system with no GPU.  Does it run as normal 
on the CPU?
