Control: retitle -1 clinfo: exits if an ICD doesn't have any devices
Control: tags -1 patch

I get the same error if I install an ICD I don't have the hardware for: 
clinfo treats the CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND that ICD then (correctly) returns 
as a fatal error.

This is fixed in Alioth 
(https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-opencl/clinfo.git), but as we are 
in freeze, cannot now be fixed in jessie.  As some ICDs can also cause 
other problems when installed on unsupported hardware (#768185), I 
instead suggest uninstalling the ICD that isn't for your hardware.
