Hello,

A new game, "Rise of the Tomb Raider", was released three days ago. I tried 
to run it on my Ubuntu 18.04
installation, without success.

It was not obvious that my installation was missing a package: 
"mesa-vulkan-drivers". After installing it,
everything went fine.

Now that the Mesa Vulkan drivers seem mature enough and that commercial 
games are being released that only support
that API, maybe it's a good time to provide that package by default on 
Ubuntu?

Best Regards,
