The Vulkan-Loader package contains a library which provides the Vulkan API and provides core support for graphics drivers for Vulkan.
![[Note]](../images/note.png)
Development versions of GLFS may not build or run some packages properly if LFS or dependencies have been updated since the most recent stable versions of the books.
CMake-3.30.3, Vulkan-Headers-1.3.295, and Xorg Libraries
Mesa-24.2.2 (runtime: for Vulkan drivers) and Wayland-1.23.1
If this package is being installed on a system where Mesa has already been installed previously, please rebuild Mesa after this package to install Vulkan graphics drivers.
Install Vulkan-Loader by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \
-G Ninja ..
ninja
This package does not come with a working test suite.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
-DCMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON: This
switch makes cmake
remove hardcoded library search paths (rpath) when installing a
binary executable file or a shared library. This package does not
need rpath once it's installed into the standard location, and
rpath may sometimes cause unwanted effects or even security issues.
-D
BUILD_WSI_WAYLAND_SUPPORT=OFF: This option allows
building the library without Wayland.
First clean the build directory:
rm -rf *
Install lib32-Vulkan-Loader by running the following commands:
ASFLAGS=--32 CFLAGS=-m32 CXXFLAGS=-m32 \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib32/pkgconfig \
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-D CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib32 \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \
-G Ninja ..
ninja
Now, as the root user:
DESTDIR=$PWD/DESTDIR ninja install cp -vr DESTDIR/usr/lib32/* /usr/lib32 rm -rf DESTDIR ldconfig
