Vivaldi is a web browser by the Norwegian company Vivaldi Technologies.
Installation
Simply install the vivaldi package.
Get it working with KDE Plasma 6
Currently Vivaldi crashes at startup on KDE Plasma 6 due to improper packaging.[1] A workaround for this is to override the package attributes like the following.
(vivaldi.overrideAttrs (oldAttrs: {
dontWrapQtApps = false;
dontPatchELF = true;
nativeBuildInputs = oldAttrs.nativeBuildInputs ++ [pkgs.kdePackages.wrapQtAppsHook];
}))
Force use of password store (KWallet, GNOME Keyring)
To force of specific password store you will have to use flags according to chromium docs.
Below is an example that modifies the package attributes. Use gnome-libsecret for GNOME Keyring and kwallet6 for KDE Plasma 6
(vivaldi.override {
commandLineArgs = "--password-store=kwallet6";
})
