[Pkg-fglrx-devel] CodeXL support

I recently started using CodeXL (profiler and shader analyzer for AMD 
GPUS and some other stuff) and noticed that the .deb package supplied by 
AMd is installable without issues, but does not recognize fglrx.

Since the fglrx .debs provided by AMD don't work on debian (even if you 
patch the dkms stuff to compile for recent kernels), that leaves debian 
users with no options.
Would it be possible to either package CodeXL (like Arch does) or at 
least to provide support for it, when it is installed from other sources?

I am happy to contribute a couple of hours a week if necessary, since I 
depend on this tool as a development aid. However, I do not know yet how 
CodeXL actually detects fglrx. Hints and ideas are appreciated, 
regardless of packaging or not.

Best regards,
Florian
