Chromium does not start after update due to database version

I have updated slowroll chromium to 136.0.7103.113-1.1. It now does not start. Running from the command line, this is the error:

FATAL:chrome/browser/web_applications/web_app_database.cc:146] Check failed: state.metadata.version() == GetCurrentDatabaseVersion() (2 vs. 1)

Is there a way for me to fix or remove this database?

I was able to:

  1. move the ~/.config/chromium directory
  2. start the new chromium, which repopulated this directory
  3. copy my old bookmarks file back into ~/.config/chromium/Default/Bookmarks

This doesn’t preserve the other user state, but it’s enough for me.
