Hello @kassindornelles, this is a known issue.

Deleting <steam folder>/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/pinned_libs_* allows steam to regenerate the pinned library folders on the next run and automatically workaround this.

The steam folder is ~/.local/share/Steam if you used the Valve-provided steam package, or ~/.steam if you are using the distro-provided steam package.
