Bug#890472: ITP: shaderc -- A collection of tools, libraries and tests for shader compilation

[Witold Baryluk]

Hi,

is there some progress on this? I think libshaderc (and glslc)
would be nice to use in mpv, as well for general Vulkan
developement.

Sebastian Dröge mentioned that shaderc is required for Gtk4,
but I don't think this is true. I checked the Gtk4 sources,
and it uses Vulkan, but doesn't use shaderc. In fact Gtk4
is already in experimental with Vulkan support enabled.
No shaderc required.

Still, it would be really useful to have shaderc in Debian,
for other things.

Regards,
Witold

  Description : A collection of tools, libraries and tests for shader
compilation

Shaderc wraps around core functionality in glslang and SPIRV-Tools.
 At the moment it includes:
 - glslc, a command line compiler for GLSL/HLSL to SPIR-V, and
 - libshaderc, a library API for doing the same.
