The problem is that nvidia-libopencl1 supports OpenCL 1.1,
while all other support OpenCL 1.2. I could rebuild PyOpenCL
for OpenCL 1.1 but it would prevent all users from using features
present in OpenCL 1.2.
I do not see easy solution here.

Yes. libopencl1 just manages ICDs - nvidia-opencl-icd is responsible for
running code on GPU.

Best regards.
