`executable_path` is different between 'undetected-playwright-python' and 'playwright-python '

System info

• Playwright Version: 1.43.00
• undetected-playwright-python: 1.40.0.post1700587210000
• Operating System: Ubuntu 20
• Browser: Chromium

With this Python test file I got the error below.
I don't have this error with the Playwright module

from undetected_playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
    with sync_playwright() as p:
       browser = p.chromium.launch_persistent_context(user_data_dir=user_data_dir, headless=False)
       page = browser.new_page()
       page.goto('https://playwright.dev/python', wait_until='domcontentloaded')
       browser.close()

In /home/dev/.cache/ms-playwright/ there is no chromium-1091 directory but the chromium-1112 directory.

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
    with sync_playwright() as p:
        print(p.chromium.executable_path)

Got /home/dev/.cache/ms-playwright/chromium-1112/chrome-linux/chrome

from undetected_playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
    with sync_playwright() as p:
        print(p.chromium.executable_path)

Got /home/dev/.cache/ms-playwright/chromium-1091/chrome-linux/chrome

I had a similar issue, but just passed the executable_path explicitly:

browser = p.chromium.launch(
        executable_path="/home/xxxxx/.cache/ms-playwright/chromium-1117/chrome-linux/chrome",
        args=args,
        headless=False,
    )

or you can install the expected version by running undetected-playwright install

[pim97]

browser = p.chromium.launch(
        channel="chrome",
        args=args,
        headless=False,
    )

worked for me
