Package: chromium-driver
Version: 98.0.4758.80-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
i've been using chromium-driver in a small selenium python3 script
almost daily for more than a year now.
everything worked nicely until within the last few days, where my script
suddenly started to timeout.
on investigation, it seems that the problem is that creating a new
instance of the chrome driver will hang (hang most of the time).
The problem can be reproduced with the following one liner:
python3 -c "from selenium import webdriver; webdriver.Chrome()"
I just ran this snippet 10 times, and in 3 cases it returned immediately
(which is expected), and in 7 case it would hang forever showing a
chromium instance that appears to be loading a "data:," URI forever (see
attached screenshot).
with a 70% failure rate, this makes this webdriver practically useless.
