Hello @wthrif, there is a game bundled libstdc++.so.6 that is too old to be used with your version of mesa. Remove ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Portal 2/bin/libstdc++.so.6.

Closing as a duplicate of #248.

No No no! can't we tell some one at valve HQ to Stop Bundling the libmesa Graphics drivers with their New valve games? Source SDK 2013 Games should stop containing it in their install!! I do believe this is inexcusable.... Personally i can't open Counter-Strike Global Offensive/Portal 2/Left 4 Dead 2/Black Mesa/Portal Stories Mel/Stanley Parable/The Beginners Guide all because i have to delete the old Files individually after install. But C.S.S. T.F.2 Left 4 Dead? and Garry's Mod works because they don't enforce it!

Luckily i use the Debian cleaning commandline application to remove it for me... cruft.deb. I've seen this problem too often it is not closed until it is truly Fixed! Come on this is Linux we don't need driver half the time, but not all the time.... We don't all run a pure install of Debian or a another BSD...

Also what is with the .exe files in the linux installation also? Also i'm not saying that all library included in package is bad, Steam itself that it's hard to sort binaries for certain versions of linux. Certain binaries are okay such as sdl libraries are important. My best solution is to compare somehow the version of the runtimes to what is available to the user in the Distros current repository.

Fixed with workaround is not fixed.
