How did you solve the issue?

Sorry for the slow reply. It's covered in the release notes as mentioned 1 post up from this one.

The issue is an ABI version mismatch, rofi wants 7 and calc is 6, if I recall correctly the numbers. Regardless, it's a mismatch.

What I did initially was to roll back my rofi to a commit that things were working, in Paru, for me that was:

~/.cache/paru/clone/rofi-lbonn-wayland/
 git checkout 25ede94
makepkg -si

Alternately you can try and rebuild the problem plugin, I have not taken a look yet at calc, as the rollback satisfies my needs for now.
