Your system information

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

steamwebhelper displays heavy graphical glitches when using steam-runtime.
Video of issue: https://youtu.be/m5nWMxzvB74

steamwebhelper in steam-native also fails due to (known) libpcre.so.3 error, so can't use this instead.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Launch steam-runtime
  2. View store, community or use overlay browser.

Mesa 19.0.5:

Fixed in Mesa-git:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=12bf7cfecf52083c484602f971738475edfe497e

For AMD Arch users who updated to 19.0.5, here's a downgrade command:

cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg && sudo pacman -U mesa-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz mesa-vdpau-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz libva-mesa-driver-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz lib32-mesa-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz lib32-mesa-vdpau-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz lib32-libva-mesa-driver-19.0.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Downgraded and it works. Will hold off from updating Mesa until its next release as switching to mesa-git involves moving to testing. Thanks!
