Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libva.so.1
libva.so.1
libva-x11.so.1

^ in a nutshell, steam says it couldn't find libva.so ,but the libs are installed and it literally was launching just fine an hour ago Note: I have steam-native shortcut on desktop and steam-native is first thing that autocompletes in krunner, so I am pretty sure I was running steam-native all this time

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. No idea it broke today even though the files are in here the build version didn't change and the files/libraries are already present on my system.

Hello @kubast2, libva and lib32-libva no longer provides libva.so.1. You're looking for the libva1 and lib32-libva1 packages which are pulled in by the steam-native-runtime package.

Closing as invalid.

@kisak-valve Yep the issue happend, because I updated before steam-native-runtime had libva1 and lib32-libva1 packages as dependencies, and before libvs.so.1 and libva-x11.so.1 were searchable from pacman -Fs
