Had to deal with this recently. The cause is openSUSE’s move to SELinux on new installs, which by default blocks the required permissions for the RPM version of Steam. You can correct this with these commands: ausearch -c 'steam' --raw | audit2allow -a -M my-steam to create the permissions file and semodule -X 300 -i my-steam.pp to apply it. Hopefully this saves someone else from the wild goose chase I went on earlier.

      I am unsure. I’ll give this a try soon, as it looks like it probably does the trick. Thanks for letting me know.

      EDIT: Seemingly not, at least on my setup. It was installed automatically as a dependency of Steam, but I needed to use my previous commands to get Proton to work.
