Ubuntu Server won't install opencl compliant driver for ATI Radeon HD 4870

[some.hacker]

I had an NVIDIA card in this computer and I installed the nvidia-opencl-dev package with no issues. After installing the ATI card, I tried to install the boinc-amd-opencl package and it tells me:

Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

lspci finds:
VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV770 [Radeon HD 4870

How do I install an opencl supported driver for this card?

Hi

amd-libopencl1 does not seem to be available for precise.

http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/boinc-amd-opencl

amd-libopencl1 Package not available

An apt-cache search does not show it in Saucy either.

It also say's it's unavailable.

It may not be good for an AMD card.

Looks like debian may have it.
