Vivaldi is a web browser by the Norwegian company Vivaldi Technologies.
Installation
add vivaldi to your environment.systemPackages and rebuild your system configuration.
Get it working with plasma 6
Currently, vivaldi crash at startup on plasma6 due to improper packaging[1], a workaround to this is to override the default package attributes by adding the following to your environment.systemPackages :
(vivaldi.overrideAttrs
(oldAttrs: {
dontWrapQtApps = false;
dontPatchELF = true;
nativeBuildInputs = oldAttrs.nativeBuildInputs ++ [pkgs.kdePackages.wrapQtAppsHook];
}))
Force use of password store (KWlallet, GNOME Keyring)
To force of specific password store you will have to modify the package according to chromium docs
Use gnome-libsecret for GNOME Keyring and kwallet6 for KDE Plasma 6
(stable.vivaldi.override {
commandLineArgs = "--password-store=kwallet6";
})
