Upgrade will break Chrome

[Günter Neiß]

After a "sudo apt upgrade" the game "www.hero-wars.com" stops working (when running inside Google-Chrome).
It shows only its Background window, but no game-play.
After a roll back of the upgraded package it works again.

Hello,

same behaviour here with
Google-Chrome Version 114.0.5735.198 (Official Build) (64-bit)
and Brave Version 1.52.130 Chromium: 114.0.5735.198 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Some icons and graphics are missing both on the browser (toolbar) and inside rendered pages.

[Günter Neiß (gneiss)]

I can confirm, that removing folders "GPUCache" will fix the problem (for Chrome)

[Sebastian Nohn (sebastian-nohn)]

Can confirm both the bug and the workaround on AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750U with Radeon Graphics

[Alkis Georgopoulos (alkisg)]

Confirming both the bug and the GPUCache folders workaround.

sudo find /home/ -depth -type d -name GPUCache -exec rm -rf {} \;
