12-05-2025 KDE updates can break Chromium base programs

Posting for folks that are having issues with their Chromium based apps after yesterday’s KDE updates. I just rolled backed to just prior to the updates to correct the issue temporarily. I’ll have to wait and see if the KDE devs put out a fix cause I for one am not reenabling KWallet to address the issue.

Since this update, I can no longer use Vivaldi. It takes 1min20 to load and I get a blank page with the Vivaldi “V” logo and that’s it. This is very annoying because Vivaldi is a superb browser and it is multi-functional (mails, notes, …). What can I do while waiting for the bug to be fixed?

For now reenable KWallet. The issues has something to do with it.

Everything is back to normal with today’s kwallet update (6.14.0-1 → 6.14.0-2).
