    Installed: 17.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 17.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Version table:

  Easily reproducible : apt-get install mesa-vulkan-drivers apt-get install vulkan-utils

  Open a terminal type vulkan-smoketest instead of a glxgears type window it will segfault.

  What should happen is a glxgears like window will open and render properly instead of segfaulting.
  It appears that the culprit is an old or broken libvulkan_radeon.so provided by mesa-vulkan-drivers.

  As a test I renamed the old lib and dropped in a newer version from
  oibaf's ppa. smoketest now passes steam's The Talos Princible and Mad
  Max now work properly in Vulkan mode as well instead of segfaulting.

  This issue is also present on Zesty and fixed in both Oibaf's and
  Padoka's ppa's since April back when they were rolling 17.2 mesa.

  I have no idea if libvulkan_intel.so also needs updating no hardware
  to check.
