Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

The "Create or select new steam library folder" dialog is empty and the previous additional entry (/mnt/games1/steam) went missing between two updates (unsure which ones though) making the games installed there unplayable.

Screenshot of the list of Library paths, that only has one entry (missing the other one in /mnt that should be there):

Tried adding it back but the dialog is unusable with the "New Folder" button doing nothing, "Select" does nothing either making it impossible to add the other path back again..
