Additional context

I am using the version of ungoogled-chromium installed from the OBS repository on vanilla Arch. I see that the icu package was updated this morning, so that is the likely culprit of this issue since that is the package that provides libicui18n.so on Arch. Seems like UC is looking for the old version of the library.

Happy to provide any other information requested.

networkException commented 1 year ago

I already issued a rebuild but OBS did not pick up the dependency. I will issue another rebuild later

TrAyZeN commented 1 year ago

Seems like ungoogled-chromium uses also libicuuc.so which got upgraded too.

jonas-w commented 1 year ago

The problem is that the package icu has version 72 while chromium seems to depend on the older version 71

networkException commented 1 year ago

By now all distribution channels should have an updated version of the package

ungoogled-software / ungoogled-chromium-archlinux
