I'll look into this

jonringer commented 4 years ago

The main offender is this line, export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$STEAM_LD_LIBRARY_PATH in ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Opus\ Magnum/Lightning

Removing it allows me to start opus magnum, I'm assuming the other games are similarly packaged

Testing that on my system, the edit you suggested does not allow the game to run successfully.

jonringer commented 4 years ago

please try the PR

jonringer commented 4 years ago

nixpkgs-review pr <pr-number> wait for it to finish building... then do steam and try to launch the game

aiverson commented 4 years ago

Testing with the PR also fails to launch the game on my system. I used the steam validate local files tool to ensure that my local install is intact first. The logs seem the same as well, complaining about /etc/ld.so.cache.

And I did verify that I was using the new steam command to test using which.

jonringer commented 4 years ago

which game did you test? I only tested with opus magnum

aiverson commented 4 years ago

I tested with Opus Magnum and Shenzhen I/O. Neither works.
