No, it will only disable vulkan if all the previous checks fail as
this conditional shortcircuits (so to get to here it would have to be
false || false || false || false || false || warn "Disable vulkan" &&
disable vulkan). If I hack the version number to match mine (changing
it to 1.3.239), vulkan won't be disabled (that's why I added the
warning message) and you'll hit the build breakage I and others are
hitting currently.

They don't, so my first thought was that since this is the only place
where check_pkg_config_header_only is called, it seemed likely that
there was a bug in that function. However, I couldn't spot anything
obviously broken in it and it is returning the correct value (hence
this patch behaving as expected).

Best,
Tristan
