Opera crash on Wayland (Manjaro Linux) - Report

Hello,

Since the update to version 129.0.5823.44 (2 days ago), Opera fails to start on my system and crashes immediately with a core dump.

System Information:

OS: Manjaro Linux (Arch-based)
Installation method: Snap (version 444)
Display Server: Wayland
Opera version: 129.0.5823.44

Error Details:

[ERROR:ui/gtk/gtk_ui.cc:251] Schema org.gnome.desktop.interface does not have key font-antialiasing
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
[ERROR:third_party/crashpad/crashpad/snapshot/elf/elf_dynamic_array_reader.h:64] tag not found
zsh: IOT instruction (core dumped)  opera

System logs show:

systemd-coredump[5746]: Process 5656 (opera) of user 1000 dumped core.

What I've tried:

Forcing X11 backend with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb opera - same crash
snap refresh opera - no updates available
Verified snap connections - all properly connected including wayland interface

Snap connections confirmed:

wayland: opera:wayland → :wayland (connected)
x11: opera:x11 → :x11 (connected)
All other interfaces properly connected

Additional info:

Opera was working fine before the update 2 days ago
The crash happens immediately on startup, no window appears
The Qt platform plugin error suggests a library compatibility issue

Has anyone else experienced this issue with the recent snap update? Is there a known workaround or fix coming?

Thank you!
