Bug#769191: #769072,#769191: nvidia-opencl-icd breaking non-nvidia systems



I think the trigger is nvidia-opencl-icd adding a new dependency on libcuda1 (changelog: Add libcuda1 dependency to libraries that seem to be capable of doing dlopen("libcuda.so") or dlopen("libcuda.so.1").), which pulls in the rest of nvidia-* as libcuda1 Recommends: nvidia-kernel-dkms which Recommends: nvidia-driver.

Next question, why did you have nvidia-opencl-icd in the first place?
I suspect the answer is probably https://bugs.debian.org/739176
which has already been fixed.

It can't be pyopencl if it's still installed (that now Depends: libopencl-1.2-1 and both providers of that Conflict: libopencl1 as provided by nvidia-libopencl1), but it could have been if it were then removed (perhaps after noticing that it didn't work). The only other Depends or Recommends on opencl-icd in the current archive is bfgminer.

(If you actually want to use OpenCL on Intel hardware, you need beignet from experimental (the version in unstable/testing is too old to support Haswell) and ocl-icd-libopencl1, but the absence of those shouldn't break graphics.)
