Vulkan 1.4 is a really big release with lots of new features which are important to Vulkan devs, so upgrading will help those and it doesn't break other users.
Timo had done is once few years back, probably for 18.04 when Vulkan 1.2 was release in jan-2020, and canonical upgraded the vulkan loader for 1.2 on 2 year old LTS. We don't want users with 24.04 LTS to live with older vulkan version for next 10 years. We already did verification of installing latest one from 25.04 and it got installed without requirement for anything else and it works great, without any issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to vulkan-loader in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2116145 Title: Need Vulkan loader to be upgraded to 1.4 in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vulkan-loader/+bug/2116145/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
