[Pkg-opencl-devel] Bug#920497: Bug#920497: clblas: *ger out of bounds memory access under pocl

[Rebecca N. Palmer]

Yes - it's still there with current sid.

For libgpuarray/pygpu, a workaround is to use libclblast instead of 
libclblas.

clblas, and its other non-meta reverse dependency (arrayfire), are 
currently not in testing due to other bugs.  Given this, this bug may 
not be worth further attention.
