Randomly when looking at my library or into the store, games will appear as uninitialized, with no name or icon provided.

I managed to get a screenshot of the last instance of it happening.

It appears to not be triggered by anything specific, I was unable to replicate it and get any terminal output.

This has happened with me too I just find it annoying when I’m trying to look at items in a list and I can't see the name of the game.

This is the store website playing up, it happens :(

This is the store website playing up, it happens :(

I haven't seen it on the site without using the Steam Client, though. I -have- seen it with the client (and dismissed it as you did). Have you seen it without the Steam Client being the browser?

Yup, it happened a few times for me during the Linux launch sale in Firefox.

Well, alrighty then.

Ggdrewb-valve maintainer 2013-03-04 github

Should this issue be closed then, as it doesn't appear to be a Linux problem?

MMrSchism 2013-03-05 github

I'm thinking so. I'll close it until someone can prove it's only happening in the client.

Nothing extracted yet.
