I can launch steam fine using STEAM_RUNTIME=1

but STEAM_RUNTIME=0 show this error

Code:
src/steamUI/Main.cpp (3060) : !"Fatal Error: Could not load module 'bin/vgui2_s.dll'"


I searched around and found "Steam "Could not load module vgui2" [solved]" https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1110384-start-0.html

but this

Code:
find ~/.local/share/Steam/ -name 'libgpg-error.so*' -delete
find ~/.local/share/Steam/ -name 'libstdc++*' -delete
find ~/.local/share/Steam/ -name 'libgcc_s.so*' -delete


does not do anything for me? any ideas?

Code:

Have you tried running the stable Steam client instead of the beta?

Hi I got a similar problem with Steam. Do you already found a solution for this problem?


Hey so I made an issue on steam GitHub https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9054

But it was closed immediately as disabling steam runtime is not supported.

I'm sure it can work but I don't know how. I'm fairly sure it has something to do with LD using 64bit libs

Have you considered that you may need to use abi_x86_32?

My gcc is multilib and sys-devel/binutils doesn't have 32 abi USE. I'm not sure where to add it

Ok, if that is all the relevant packages that are related to steam then it is probably not relevant to your case. I thought it was something to eliminate as a possibility. I use wine and compile my own Bottles software, so I have it in my global USE flags in make.conf because I want it for a lot of packages. That would not be desired for some but it works out for me to play games and have 32bit video drivers.
Google "steam abi_x86_32" to read relevant conversations about it.

I'm not sure if you still require help, but if so, here are some recommendations:

emerge games-util/steam-meta games-util/steam-launcher games-util/steam-client-meta from the steam-overlay with the steamruntime USE flag disabled, so it pulls the necessary dependencies.

Enable abi_x86_32 globally, some dependencies might still be missing, but it could prevent future issues with Steam and possibly increase compatibility with some games.

Check out esteam on the steam-overlay as you might need it for some game dependencies when using STEAM_RUNTIME=0

Enabling abi_x86_32 globally is almost certainly overkill. If dependencies are set correctly in the relevant ebuilds, it should be sufficient to enable that flag only on Steam, then enable it iteratively on packages where Steam or its dependencies require it to be enabled.
