the latest steam beta update needed lib32-pipewire to start, which, if you used the steam-native client wouldnt work because the packages werent on manjaro yet, but it continued to work on the default steam version which included its own runtime.
this update added the lib32-pipewire libraries, which in theory should allow steam-native to work again on the latest steam-beta, but it still doesnt. here is the entire terminal output, trying to start steam-native
steam-runtime continues to work without issue. i dont know how much this is manjaros fault and how much it is steams fault

Have you tried the vanilla steam-runtime, part of the default Manjaro installation, I notice youāre using the steam-native with public-beta opt-in.

If itās an issue with the native version then upstream will be the best place to report
PS
straight from Arch: Warning: Using the Steam native runtime is not recommended as it might break some games due to binary incompatibility and it might miss some libraries present in the Steam runtime.

Does this mean we just have to reinstall lib32-pipewire to fix it?

Steam does not start up when opting in to beta. Opting out by removing `~/.steam/steam/package/beta` works fine though.
When issue #7807 was raised, I simply installed `lib32-pipewire` from AUR, but since today the Beta seems to be completly broken now. I already uninstalled `lib32-pipewire` again but it resulted in no change to the current issue.

Thought I might mention that āsteam-nativeā broke after it self updated the past 3 days.

You donāt need to install ā libpipewire-0.3.so.0ā, because steam-native will lockup when attempting to login.
You can use steam-runtime to launch steam.
Alternatively some people have removed āsteam-nativeā and replaced it with steam flatpak version

(I have not tested this yet) .

#### Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Help -> System Information should check whether `libpipewire-0.3.so.0` is present and can be loaded. At the moment it does not.
#### Steps for reproducing this issue:
```
~/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/setup.sh
~/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/run.sh steam-runtime-system-info --verbose > srsi.txt
```
should print something like this, and the equivalent for x86_64, among other information:
```
"libpipewire-0.3.so.0" : {
"soname" : "libpipewire-0.3.so.0",
"path" : ".../steam-runtime/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpipewire-0.3.so.0"
},
```
#### Workaround
```
echo "libpipewire-0.3.so.0 libpipewire-0.3-0 #MINVER#" > ~/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/usr/lib/steamrt/expectations/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpipewire-0.3-0.symbols
echo "libpipewire-0.3.so.0 libpipewire-0.3-0 #MINVER#" > ~/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/usr/lib/steamrt/expectations/i386-linux-gnu/libpipewire-0.3-0.symbols
```

Not sure if Iām the only one with this issue. Steam runtime works just fine and even launches the native client, but launching directly from the native app causes steam to hang at the connecting to account window.

will this fix stay in unstable? I was wondering if this will also be released in stable or if I have to use unstable for steam-native from now on
No, it will arrive in the other branches like all other software does. See:
Try this:
pacman -Qs nvidia
I tried it and found I had nVidia 4.38 as well as 4.65 installed. Removed the old drivers, rebooted, and Steam started right up and hasnāt crashed. Found this on Reddit.
Is it going to take long ?
Youāll see it in the next stable update. Itās now in the testing branch:
All right. I had Steam running, and it was downloading Vulkan shaders and crashed. It would not start.
I ended up renaming the ~/.steam folder and deleting everything in ~/.local/share/Steam except for the steamapps folder. It reinstalled and ran. Apparently something hinky in the .steam folder.
Note that if you do delete .steam, youāll need to log in again.
Is it possible to fast-track changes such as this so they get deployed without the need for a new stable update? From what I can tell, this impacts a lot of people.
In this case itās not that simple as lib32-libnm
replaced lib32-libnm-glib
which are both synced from Arch.
If youāre brave, you could install the packages manually:
lib32-libnm
steam-native
