Steam for Linux doesn't seem to be able to have updating executable to continue to scan as long it needs like it used to anymore.

Here are reasons

1. Some games through Proton (any versions) like Call of Duty Black ops, Homefront, and/or Alien vs Predator (2010 version) requires updating execute before continue to play.

2. Most of the time, after for a past 15 to 20 seconds, it just rejects no matter what without any reasons at all after I looked at terminal on Ubuntu just to keep an eye on it.

Please fix it.

But I may tell you about running some games like Call of Duty or Homefront.

After I see if it says Updating execute on Terminal, here are some pop-up glitch about Steam AppID.txt

[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; no appID found. Either launch the game from Steam, or put the file steam_appid.txt containing the correct appID in your game folder. [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; no appID found. Either launch the game from Steam, or put the file steam_appid.txt containing the correct appID in your game folder.

Even I already added steam_appid.txt with a correct appID number for these games. But, running Steam on Terminal won't fix that issues, I tried Steam for Linux as a beta, it didn't fixed that either. However, update execute progress rejects without reason is what makes us feel frustrated.
