Steam suddenly does not open. Instead, it shows a popup window with the following content:
Check your DISPLAY environment variable and make sure that you have enabled X.

Note that I'm running Wayland but this has never been an issue until today. Same issue when running Steam with the SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11 environment variable.
The following output results from launching from command line:
