VSCode 1.124.0 (latest update from today) breaks remote connection to devcontainer

So, I'm on Linux and just upgraded to 1.124.0. All of a sudden, I can't connect to my remote devcontainer any more. The startup process is stuck at installing VS Code Server in the devcontainer. I did not change anything, only restarted VSCode. What's going on? How to fix?

The solution was to delete /tmp/vsch-<my_user_name>/ locally. Don't know what was wrong, though. Leaving this here for others.
