It seems that debian/watch only tracks tags starting with "sdk-" and
intermediate releases aren't packaged.
Are there any reasons besides time and manpower? Would there be a way to
assist?
Lack of timely releases in downstream distros such as Debian is a pain
point I brought up in the LunarG Vulkan 2021 ecosystem survey. My
impression was that this was due to lack of official releases/tags for
intermediate versions, but they have got back to me and pointed out that
that is not the case. And indeed I cannot see any difference between SDK
and non-SDK tags besides the SDK ones having an official binary release
from LunarG.
Building intermediate versions affect the whole stack of
spirv-headers/-tools, glslang, vulkan-loader etc. And I don't have the
time for updating them all each time a minor release is out.
