When creating automated system data for Lutris in the case of bugs (via lutris --submit-issue), the program relies on vulkaninfo to gather some information.

It appears this is already an optdepend by lutris

I can only tell that I did not get prompted to install any optional dependencies. I just think that, since the tool is required for debugging purposes when hitting issues using Lutris, it might be worth to install by default.

Optional dependencies are only listed. You still have to go out of your way to install it manually.

I know. I was just hoping to reduce friction for users in general. I get the gist that CachyOS is Arch-based, so it is somewhat expected to have more Linux knowledge and know how Arch package management works. But that is not always the case. There are people that install it because it claims to have optimizations that improve performance. And for those this might not be all too obvious.

But since the gaming meta is a package set, I was hoping to reduce issues for newcomers and users in general. It's a small change that simply enhances UX for everybody.

I am willing to open the PR. Just let me know!
