After updating a ton of packages (the machine is on ~amd64 and was last updated about two weeks ago) Steam refuses to start. I created a new Unix user account so that I get a fresh /home directory with nothing in it. Trying to start steam on it fails: $ STEAM_RUNTIME=1 steam Running Steam on gentoo 64-bit STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled by the user Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1378500910_client) Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1378500910_client) unlinked 0 orphaned pipes removing stale semaphore last operated on by process 4091 with name 0emSteamEngineInstance removing stale semaphore last operated on by process 4091 with name 0eSteamEngineLock /home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier0/threadtools.cpp (1790) : Assertion Failed: File exists Assert( Assertion Failed: File exists ):/home/buildbot/buildslave_steam/steam_rel_client_ubuntu12_linux/build/src/tier0/threadtools.cpp:1790 Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1378500910_client) Uploading dump (out-of-process) [proxy ''] /tmp/dumps/assert_20130915173357_4.dmp unlinked 2 orphaned pipes CAsyncIOManager: 0 threads terminating. 0 reads, 0 writes, 0 deferrals.
