Public bug reported: [Availability]
vulkan-utils package is present since Focal, as part of vulkan-tools package: <https://launchpad.net/ ubuntu/+source/vulkan-tools> as transitional package <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vulkan-tools/ 1.2.131.1+dfsg1-1> : amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el riscv64 s390x. In this case, vulkan-tools has to be MIR (it's source for vulkan-utils). The package was in sync until it had to be changed to accomodate the MIR requirements (delta contains now dep8 tests, but it's going to be fordwarded to Debian). Package with test is here: lp:~mirespace/+git/ vulkan-tools (ppa:mirespace/impish-vulkan-tools-adding-dep8-tests). [Rationale] This tool is included in our GKE images for Focal and the package needs to be on main for this (so, after MIR, it needs to be released to Focal later on). [Security] No CVEs found. [Quality assurance] -> Bugs No active bugs in launchpad. Debian: - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=vulkan-tools: The only reported bug is not considered as such. - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/ pkgreport.cgi?include=tags%3Apatch&exclude=tags%3Apending&pend-exc=done&repeatmerged=no&src=vulkan : The only one has a patch and is a request for porting to non-linux systems. Upstream: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Tools/issues. They have 6 bugs open (52 closed), Wayland support related and the other driver-related with a workaround or known issues. -> Contents root@focal:~# apt-file list vulkan-tools vulkan-tools: /usr/bin/vkcube vulkan-tools: /usr/bin/vkcubepp vulkan-tools: /usr/bin/vulkaninfo vulkan-tools: /usr/share/doc/vulkan-tools/changelog.Debian.gz vulkan-tools: /usr/share/doc/vulkan-tools/copyright vulkan-tools: /usr/share/man/man1/vulkaninfo.1.gz -> Installation: No debconf questions arise. ubuntu@develop:~$ sudo apt install vulkan-tools Reading package lists...

It uses a debian/watch file. Although the package scans HW (as its target functionality is to show vulkan information related to gpu) and in that sense also "deals with exotic HW", it incorporates a mocked ICD driver that we used e. g. for testing. -> Tests: They are now included: autopkgtest [12:51:08]: test check-sections: - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - - check-sections PASS autopkgtest [12:51:08]: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ summary check-sections PASS -> Lintian executions: ❯ lintian --pedantic -I --show-overrides I: vulkan-tools source: debian-watch-file-should-dversionmangle-not-uversionmangle opts="repack,uversionmangle=s/$/+dfsg1/,filenamemangle=s/(?:.*?)?sdk[_-]?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz/ vulkan-tools-$1.tar.gz/" https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Tools/tags (?:.*?/)sdk[_-](\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz P: vulkan-tools source: rules-requires-root-missing [Dependencies] All dependencies are in main, as seen in Installation above. [Standards compliance] dh style simple rules, no compat file. [Maintenance] Upstream is active, the package is maintained in Debian and is a simple command tool application. Once the dep8tests were fordwarded and accepted un Debian the package can be a sync again. In the meantime, server team is going to sign up for Ubuntu. [Background information] vulkainfo outputs various types of Vulkan information such as: -device properties of identified GPUs -Vulkan extensions supported by each GPU -recognized layers -supported image formats and format properties. Vulkan is a next generation graphics and compute API that provides high-efficiency, cross-platform access to modern GPUs. vulkan source package [1] seems to be renamed to [2] (it is also not present in the removals file [3]). Upstream [4] is now Read-only, with recommendations to use the new repositories (vulkan-tools among others).
