I ran "steam" and steam loaded normally, I was testing to see if I could get Cry of Fear working on the Raspberry Pi 5 and I left it idle for about 20 - 30 minutes, when I came back steam was closed, trying to reopen steam led to these errors:

And even steamcmd was affected

FYI I am using https://github.com/Botspot/Pi-apps to get steam.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open up terminal
  2. Type Steam
  3. Error message
