installing xdg-desktop-portal (1.21.0+ds-1), currently in experimental, seems to result in severe errors regarding storing passwords in the wallet (kde wallet), esp. the signal passphrase used to decipher messages through sql.

taking care of the passphrase under 'chromium keys'/password/'Chromium Safe Storage' (before updating) is highly suggested (it even happended one time the password got completely changed when this version of xdg-desktop-portal is installed). Signal is unuseable after the update or needs to be fully reinstalled, loosing all former exisiting messages.

reverting back to a former version of xdg-desktop-portal & taking care of the passphrase in the wallet (is it there / the same as before?) resulted at least 2 times in a successfully starting Signal again.
