I made a first pass at packaging it and starting feeling ill at the pain,

the big problem was pacakging libclc, its horribly developed, got what I think
is a handwritten build system in python (or a port of one), requires a fair
few patches to even get close to being useful.

I'm sort of waiting for AMD to say when they think things are more ready,
from a radeon pov, and from what I know nouveau support still isn't merged
into mesa.

So at the moment I get the feeling that you could probably run clinfo and not
much more.

Dave.
