Steam crash with latest update

As the title indicates recently I am unable to startup steam app.

Already tried the “steam --reset” aproach with no success.

Already noticed the “xdg-desktop-portal-gnome” instructions from another post , also with no avail …
Any ideas ?

I think you might have missed the info about some new steam bug-not-a-bug

Simplified: Install either lib32-libudev0-shim or lib32-libnm

Only after install the “lib32-libnm” and re-installing the full “steam” app , it solved the issue …

Thank you for the fast reply.
