Gmod Crash

[TheAnnoyingFruit]

Details

Thought about just not making this post but it does bother me I can't play the game. On my fedora 38 gnome desktop I go to open the game and nothing happens it does not open and does not leave any error message. When I try to run the hl2_linux binary directly from the terminal this is what I get "error while loading shared libraries: libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I have tried using the fix suggested when csgo suffered a similar issue where you download that file and replace it but did not succeed in getting the game to run.

Steps to reproduce

Install the game. Then open the game.

We only officially support Ubuntu Linux, last time I tested it launched and worked correctly on version 20.10.

We cannot support every single permutation of Linux there is.

By my understanding and that logic wouldn't then using the steam linux runtime make it work. I believe the steam linux runtime uses ubuntu dependencies and I did try that and it still did not launch.

I have made progress to a different error, I installed the 32 bit gperftools and now I get this "SDL video target is 'x11' SDL video target is 'x11' This system supports the OpenGL extension GL_EXT_framebuffer_object.

Installed the steam flatpak and it works.
