[SOLVED] Steam segmentation fault on start up

Hello. I was messing around with system files and let's cut to the chase I've change the name of .local for some time, and after that Steam broke. I've tried:
-Reinstalling Steam
-Reinstalling video drivers 64 and 32-bit
-Removing ./local/share/Steam and .steam
-Running steam-native
-Running steam --reset

steam.sh[175028]: Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit
steam.sh[175028]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
setup.sh[175101]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!

It's because lib32-glibc 2.39-3. Downgrade it to 2.39-2 and steam will not crash any more.

sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-glibc/lib32-glibc-2.39-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Re: [SOLVED] Steam segmentation fault on start up

Update your system instead lib32-glibc-2.39-4 should fix this.
