Is a Depends on a virtual package really wrong ? Because
this relation ship is really what we want here. The program
depends on the ABI provided by any package providing
libopencl1.

ocl-icd-libopencl1 beeing the only one in main, I think this
would be better.
  However, I still fail to see the initial problem.

  Bob, can you elaborate a little?
