> Hi, I’m running the officlial binary bundle 2.1.49 on Arch Linux. After a recent system upgrade Anki only shows a blank window. I tracked the issue down to the upgrade of glibc from 2.33 to 2.35. With 2.33 and everything else on the newest state it still works. Anyone a clue how to fix it? Thanks.

The blank window seems to be an issue due to the upgrade of glibc from 2.33 to 2.35

Running anki with `--no-sandbox` or QTWEBENGINE\_CHROMIUM\_FLAGS=“–no-sandbox” should work
