For quite a while now I get this whenever I try to start the steam client.

Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libnvidia-tls.so.340.65
libnvidia-glcore.so.340.65

Additionally if I try to start a game through its binary, I get something like this (Assuming it doesn't complain about the steam-client not being started).

./Shadowrun: error while loading shared libraries: libnvidia-tls.so.340.65: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

If I understand it right, Shadowrun does not even require the nvidia libraries, only the steam runtime.

$ readelf -d Shadowrun

As far as using nouveau goes, nvidia only offers better performance with a few new games and hardware decoding for videos. While nouveau is far more reliable and does things like tty far better so I would really like to continue using nouveau which works great with many of the games I would play like Torchlight 2, Baldur's Gate or Deus ex 1.

libnvidia-tls.so.340.65 and libnvidia-glcore.so.340.65 are distinctly from the nvidia proprietary driver, your system gl environment is inconsistent. ldd /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 and see if it's looking for those libraries.

Oorbea 2015-11-27 github

That is good thinking... I used to have the nvidia drivers installed before my previous mobo died and nvidia decided to stop working while nouveau still continued to work for a while longer. It seems that it added libraries not included in /var/log/packages/ so that it never got cleaned up properly...

Here is a diff of two quick lists I made, libgl1 are libraries in /usr/lib/ and libgl2 are files that match "lib/libGL" owned by packages installed on my system.

Looking this list it seems several packages are owned by mesa and glew, now I already reinstalled mesa several times and everything looks fine with its libraries with ldd. Also I noted that symlinks aren't listed in /var/log/packages/.

However the glew libraries aren't alright...

So I took this opportunity to reinstall glew, both the 64 bit and compat32 packages. However this did not make much difference.

$ grep lib/libGLU.so /var/log/packages/*

    libnvidia-glcore.so.340.65 => not found

So now I tried removing libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.340.65 from /usr/lib and then symlinked libGL.so.1 to libGL.so which is in turn symlinked to libGL.so.1.2.0 (Kind of a messy solution...) since the glew libraries still wanted libGL.so.1.

Finally I tried launching the steam client again and now it works once again! Thanks for you helpful pointer! I will now close this issue.

Nothing extracted yet.
