First thing I would do, is to contact the maintainer of the package, and temporarily edit the PKGBUILD of the package that is giving you the

if you are wanting to install it.
I posted a message to him on the aur page for opencl-headers.
And I did fix the problem on my computer, but for users who try to install my package they wont be able to do so unless they manually fix opencl-headers themselves.
So any suggestions on how to fix this?
I can see a couple of possible fixes:
a) opencl-headers simply conflicts=(nvidia-utils) and then people install it with -f
b) opencl-headers removes cl.h cl_gl.h and cl_platform.h since they are provided by nvidia-utils
c) nvidia-utils removes cl.h cl_gl.h and cl_platform.h since they are provided by opencl-headers
d) ???
Any other suggestions?

Well a temporary solution may be to post a warning in the comment section of your package that needs the problem-package(s) and maybe if you choose to, use a pastebin service with the PKGBUILD that would fix the problem-package(s) until the problem is fixed, then you can delete that comment.
