We can also go back to "self-baked solution" @home, but that's IMO a
step back. This problem will not last forever. But it will most probably
happen again one day.

Similarly, Flatpak on my 15.2 reported to be too old for official Chromium.

While I'm not a "containers everywhere" guy, this is IMO an exception
and advantages of using containers (for our use-case) are still much
bigger than disadvantages.

Anyway, we've just finished SUSE Workshop where Containers were an
important topic. I believe that this issue deserves being recorded
there... Anyone who could summarize the problem there, please?

Thx
