Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,
Latest security update seems to break Chromium on my System.
Attempted the usual --disable-gpu and --disable-sandbox
Getting:
ERROR:chrome/browser/ui/webui/ntp/new_tab_ui.cc:54] Requested load of
chrome://newtab/ for incorrect profile type.
And all taps are stuck loading forever.
tcpdump shows traffic on port 80 and 443
Firefox works fine.

Your apt logs (/var/log/apt/history.log) should show you what version
you updated from when you installed .102~deb13u1. It's helpful to know
whether what you saw was a regression in the v149 series itself (a much
easier thing to track down), or something related to the upgrade from
v148 -> v149.

Could be! I was also going to ask you to try .114~deb13u1, which I just
released, but since it already went away...

Glad to hear it. I'll leave this bug open for a bit in case anyone else
experiences the same thing.
Thanks!
Seems like no one else has reported this bug, so I'm going to go ahead
and close this. Thanks!
