Chromium crashes after latest update

Postby pcfreak » Thu Sep 29, 2022 9:21 am

I run archlinux|arm on a Raspberry Pi 3. I use Chromium to show webpages. After my update today, Chromium does no longer start and shows the error $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libFLAC.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory').

Somehow Chromium wants libFLAC.so.8 and archlinux|arm uses libFLAC.so.12. I could quickly fix it by placing a symlink in $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '/usr/lib') with the following command:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libFLAC.so libFLAC.so.8
')

Chromium now starts. I do not exactly know, which packages is the problem (Chromium or flac). I just wanted to report it here.

It seems that Chromium depends on flac but the current version on archlinux|arm is 101.0.4951.41-1 and needs the .8 version while the flac package itself is on .12
