Update: tried to do some things mentioned in official Arch wiki such as: modify /etc/fstab file to make required filesystem contain 'exec' parameter, add 'steamapps' folder to new library directory. Still nothing changed.
Hello,
Unfortunately we are not able to reproduce. I looked at the crash report information from your logs but it doesn't carry much information as to what is happening. It is unlikely we will make much progress on this until we have a reproduction or other users come forward with more information.
You are crashing with the Steam builtin file dialog though, you may want to install https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Desktop_Portal and use your OS file dialogs instead.
I was able to reproduce. This will be fixed in an upcoming beta client update.
wait it was actually fixed? i've just made some changes and thought it worked (i've got really surprised) here's all things i've done:
The crash was due to a race condition in the Steam client. Not something you could have fixed, other than by using xdg-desktop-portal
which uses a different path not affected by the bug.
Most folks (including me) do have xdg-desktop-portal
as it's a standard piece of a kde or gnome desktop environment.

that must be the case then, since i'm using Hyprland which invents it's own version of desktop integration portals, if i'm correct
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
i'm trying to add new directory for installed games above /home/ folder (/steamdata/ to be precise) and when I press SELECT in popup it crashes steam after a short delay. i've tried to chmod both /steamdata directory and directories where steam is installed (recursively), nothing helped. Just to mention - /home/ directory is located in HDD while other part of the system located in SSD
