Vivaldi

From NixOS Wiki

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";
})
