Thanks Kirill. I see the same with Chromium and clean profile. Vinted
works now, but with my profile it crashes. I don't want to start fresh,
so I'm dragging my feet to wipe it.

I don't see debug-chromium package for chromium. To get them based on
the Makefile I would need to build debug flavour, right?

I'm cleaning some directories, but still no luck and crash is there:

```
#!/bin/sh

cd ~/.config/chromium

pwd

rm -vf ~/.config/chromium/chrome.core
rm -vf ~/Downloads/chrome.core
rm -vf ~/chrome.core
rm -rvf ~/.cache/chromium

for directory in \
        'BrowserMetrics' \
        'Default/Application Cache' \
        'Default/AutofillAiModelCache' \
        'Default/Code Cache' \
        'Default/Code Cache/wasm' \
        'Default/DawnCache' \
        'Default/DawnGraphiteCache' \
        'Default/DawnWebGPUCache' \
        'Default/Extensions/Temp' \
        'Default/GPUCache' \
        'Default/History Provider Cache' \
        'Default/Service Worker' \

        'component_crx_cache' \

do
        rm -rvf "$directory"
done
```
