Hello @BoberMod, this sounds similar to #4378. Does adding Arch's equivalent of libnss-resolve:i386 libcurl3:i386 or adding the steam-native-runtime package help?

or adding the steam-native-runtime package help?

I have installed steam-native-runtime package but nothing has changed

Can confirm crashing steam on launch on Arch x64.
Neither installing steam-native-runtime nor setting STEAM_RUNTIME or LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE to 1 or 0 does help.

Edit: Sorry, this is the correct issue: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5096 I "fixed" steam launching by resetting steam (steam --reset). After successful re-login I opted out of all beta programs, just in case.

Echoing @ryad-eldajani , I had to steam --reset to get things working again. I can't say if it's actually fixed, however, as this is the output of this line off of the archwiki steam troubleshooting page:

$ cd ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32
$ file * | grep ELF | cut -d: -f1 | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. xargs ldd | grep 'not found' | sort | uniq
libdbus-glib-1.so.2 => not found
libnm-glib.so.4 => not found
libnm-util.so.2 => not found
libudev.so.0 => not found

I'm not sure that I have the right issue here, but the fix worked so I'll leave it here for now.

Hello @BoberMod, @ryad-eldajani, are either of you still experiencing this issue on an up to date system?
