Hello @kaz0ku, can you give LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/$LIB/libgpg-error.so' steam a try in a terminal? (from https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4451#issuecomment-220805021)
Possibly this bleeding edge issue with mesa: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101876
If you are able, please try the latest point release of mesa like from xorg-edgers or pkppa.
@kisak-valve Thanks, I've purged Padoka ppa and add the stable ppa from pkppa and now Steam can start correctly. So it seems to be a bug with the latest version of Mesa 17.2
Thanks for testing, let's leave this issue open until the upstream issue is resolved.
Thank you very much. Using Padoka Stable Mesa PPA fixed this issue for me, too
Me too - pkppa stable is working. Padoka's unstable and my original choice of oibaf both failed so I ppa-purged yet again and went with pkppa (so far so good).
Looks like a fix has landed upstream, once Padoka and Oibaf has a build newer than this commit, please retest.
Looks like [assuming these are full timestamps] -- as of right now -- oibaf has 170725 mesa and Padoka's bleeding edge has 17072414 (just before the fix was committed), so I'll re-test oibaf and report back.
Edit: working fine on oibaf versions 17.3~git1707251930.e6d793~gd~z.
After installing the new beta, I can't get my Steam to start either. Arch with mesa 17.1.5-1. Is this even related?

Hello @veluria, mesa 17.1.5 makes your issue unrelated to the issue being tracked in this issue report.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5096
Is this not the bug that @veluria is experiencing, that you closed in favor of this bug?
I am affected too, BTW. Same as @veluria. Running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with MESA GIT.

Workaround is to start steam with
steam -clearbeta
This will opt you out of the beta version of steam, and steam should start. Also consider disabling autologin, as that's also an issue (another bug)
Ran into this problem about a week ago too, and can confirm the latest update provided by Padoka's bleeding-edge Mesa ppa no longer causes Steam to crash on launch
Thanks for retesting. The fix is also in mesa 17.2.0-rc2, so I'm going to go ahead and close this out.
Hello, I've just installed Steam on my new PC but it crash at launch :(
