Plasma Wayland won't start

After today's vulkan update I can not log into Wayland

This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

optionally I could only load X11 session with errors as well
(but that's just minor issue anyway)

Same issue here. SDDM also refused to start in my case, resulted in a black screen.
The following packages were updated.

Code: [Select]
[2024-07-06T09:58:30+0200] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-libdrm (2.4.120-1 -> 2.4.122-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:30+0200] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-libgpg-error (1.49-1 -> 1.50-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:30+0200] [ALPM] upgraded libva-mesa-driver (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1.3-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:30+0200] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-libva-mesa-driver (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1.3-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:31+0200] [ALPM] upgraded mesa (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1.3-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:31+0200] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-mesa (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1.3-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:31+0200] [ALPM] upgraded vulkan-radeon (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1.3-1)
[2024-07-06T09:58:31+0200] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-vulkan-radeon (1:24.1.2-1 -> 1:24.1

The problem was solved after reverting the mesa package. Also reverted the vulkan-radeon package, unsure if that helped though as that alone didn't fix the problem.

isn't it dangerous to try updating above mentioned mesa/vulkan drivers from gremlins ?

Just downgrade them with the previous package versions still stored in /var/cache/pacman/pkg with pacman -U
