Reason for closing:  Won't fix
Additional comments about closing:  While it does ship the headers, it doesn't ship the headers in the same location as the package it would provide for and therefore it would be lying. Lying makes other packages sad and thus I won't make it provide.

Since we install them to a non-standard system location, it does not technically provide them in the same way that the opencl-headers package provides them. A package that expects these headers in standard locations would fail to find them. Opinions?
