Description:

In version 12.3.0 the following can be found in the change log:

Rename glslangValidator to glslang and create glslangValidator symlink


The symlink is not created in this package causing building some programs to fail (I found this issue with wlroots-git).
ln -s /usr/bin/glslang /usr/bin/glslangValidator fixes the issue.
This task depends upon

Arch is not doing anything special here....just using the upstream provided CMake files..maybe it's an upstream bug?

I see this in the build log:

CMake Error: failed to create symbolic link 'glslangValidator': Permission denied

This is indeed an upstream bug: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glslang/issues/3281 https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glslang/pull/3283

However, would be still great if arch could pick up the PR or just add the symlink in the PKGBUILD, since this is currently breaking builds of e.g. mesa and wlroots.

Can confirm the arch wlroots package builds fine w/ glslang 12.3.1-2.
