If the steam client is left open before suspending the system, on resuming it crashes.
I expect it to continue working on resume.
This is likely a recent issue, I do not recall it happening over a month ago (in June).

End of stdout dump:

I can share the crash dump if required.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open steam client
  2. systemctl suspend
  3. Resume system (could be immediately after suspending)
  4. Observe steam is no longer running

This hasn't happened to me for some time now so presumably whatever was crashing for me no longer is.

Closing per the last comment.

I've started to see this happen again with a recent steam client on OpenSuSE 15.3. What information can I provide that would be helpful?
