[SOLVED] Steam refuses to launch (fresh system install)

I've done this many times (installed steam on a fresh system) and it worked as expected every time. Expect for today.
Output of steam command:

bin_steam.sh[6466]: Setting up Steam content in /home/adam/.local/share/Steam
gio: Setting attribute metadata::trusted not supported
steam.sh[6466]: Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit

/home/adam/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 798: 11244 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@"

I reinstalled my whole system today. It didn't work on the previous install too (worked yesterday...)

EDIT:
lib32-glibc-2.39-3 broke steam
downgrading to lib32-glibc-2.39-2 solved the issue
