Steam: “You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6”

I am looking at this here: Steam (runtime) boot issue “You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6”
and since yesterday (2022-05-30T07:00:00Z) I am having the exact same issue after a system update. Not much was updated, mostly monguhud if I recall correctly. I went through whatver was said in that article I linked, and there no solution was given. Was this just something intermittent which was fixed with a later update? Right now this is broken for me.

This is with Wayland or/and X11 on a RX6400 which worked fine just two days ago.

you have to disable mangohud

see before

Not its not mangohud. Uninstalled it and all. No change this happens when I start steam - at that point no mangohud is yet loaded. So, can’t be that.

~> steam

Try maybe this:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc.so.6:/usr/lib32/libc.so.6 steam

Do you have lib32-glibc (2.35-5) installed?

It’s there

Searchpath missing?

Does this show the lib32 folder?
ldconfig -v | grep lib32

sudo ldconfig -v | grep ':'                                                                                                                                                           ldconfig: Path `/usr/lib64' given more than once

Something fishy going on here, but its there

What if you try steam --reset?

Imagine that. That worked. Thx
