Steam crash at login (segfault)

Belvar · 2014-10-24 20:46:58

Hello,
For some time now, steam crashes when trying to login. Either it crashes directly or show the "create account, login, etc." popup and crashes when I click on "Login to an existing account".

Here is the full output :

I am using the open source radeon drivers.
I tried deleting some libs in the steam directory as it is advised on some threads but that doesn't fix anything.

I use the open source radeon driers and current steam, no errors. Remove steam, install it again.

Thank you for your answer, I just removed ~/.local/share/Steam directory (and moved SteamApps, I don't want to redownload all my games) and config files and reinstalled it. Didn't work.
