[aur-requests] [PRQ#32958] Deletion Request for nvidia-vulkan
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nvidia-vulkan [2]: NVIDIA Vulkan 1.3 beta program seems to have been ended. NVIDIA has merged (mainstreamed) its Vulkan 1.3 development branch to its general release driver: Last beta with Vulkan 1.3: v470.62.22 (2022-01-25) Last general release driver with Vulkan 1.3: v510.54 (2022-02-14) Preceding (v510.47.03) release notes announcing general availability of Vulkan 1.3 support: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/linux-solaris-and-freebsd- driver-510-47-03-production-branch-release/202217/3 There is no further need for "nvidia-vulkan" packages. All NVIDIA drivers from now on will be based on Vulkan. Stable NVIDIA drivers with Vulkan 1.3 are in Arch repos. Meanwhile, AUR carries NVIDIA beta driver packages supporting Vulkan 1.3, maintained by Arch Linux developer @dbermond: - nvidia-beta: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-beta - nvidia-beta-dkms: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-beta-dkms - nvidia-utils-beta, opencl-nvidia-beta, nvidia-settings-beta: https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/nvidia-utils-beta - lib32-nvidia-utils-beta, lib32-opencl-nvidia-beta: https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-nvidia-utils-beta Therefore I suggest there is no further need to keep this nvidia- vulkan package base, as it has become obsolete by upstream changes.

Request #32958 has been Rejected by MarsSeed [1]: Revoking this request as the maintainer of this package has expressed their intention to keep it, and has pointed out that as of now there is no explicit signal that the NVIDIA "Vulkan Beta" developer program wouldn't continue.
