Describe the bug
AppImmage version 2.8.0 fails to run on Kubuntu 22.10.
Dolphin reports that it doesn't exist. Running in konsole gives errors.
Permissions are set correctly.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Download latest app immage on Kubuntu.
- try to run with permissions set.
- Error
Expected behavior
Application runs and shows window.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- Platform: PC
- System: Kubuntu 22.10
- Version: ProtonUp-Qt 2.8.0
- How did you install ProtonUp-Qt?:AppImage
Additional context
I managed to run it once but unexpected behaviour such as the list of installed runtimes was blank while number showed howmany were installed. I couldn't down load any more. Closing and restarting makes it not run even after redownloading appimmage.
AppImage Launcher is on my system. Maybe related?

Similar to #226, looks like you're missing a libraryfolders.vdf file. This file raises an exception before c can be set.
I managed to run it once but unexpected behaviour such as the list of installed runtimes was blank while number showed howmany were installed. I couldn't down load any more.
I would guess this is because Steam hasn't generated the libraryfolders.vdf file.
Sorry to bump a closed issue, but is it definitely a duplicate? See this section of the Terminal output:
Error: Could not get a list of all Steam apps: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/nightfiend6/.local/share/Steam/config/libraryfolders.vdf'
This is likely a problem with Steam rather than ProtonUp-Qt as Steam should generate these files. The rest of the issue appears to be the same as #226 though. The crash is the same, and the behaviour described of unused runtimes sounds the same as what was described in #226 (maybe the same config.vdf key issue).
It could be a steam problem, however the older versions of ProtonUp-Qt worked fine. I did try the new version on both another distro (Garuda Linux) and a new user under Ubuntu and the latest version worked fine.
I am guessing that as my home partition has been copied over from one drive to another with each PC that I had for well over 15 years and across various distros, that something changed in how steam is configured on Linux finally caught up with me.
I have noticed that steam default library path has changed to ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/
I did check and in new installs that directory path and file are not generated. I experimented for a bit and figured out that renaming the current .steam directory, completely removing steam in Synaptic and deleting both steam config folders, followed by reinstalling steam got the current version of ProtonUp-Qt to work as expected.
I have noticed that steam default library path has changed to
~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/
That shouldn't be the path to Steam, the path should be ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps. It sounds like something got messed up with your Steam installation.

I did some further testing with a new desktop user account on my PC and unistalling steam.
The path that I gave is how Steam from the Ubuntu repo is set up. The path that you gave is how the Steam.deb downloaded from Steam's website is set up.
ProtonUp-Qt should still be checking ~/.steam/debian-installation, but this does now seem to be the same as #226, which I guess boils down to library folders not being found.
#231 may fix the issue here since ProtonUp-Qt now checks for the given VDF files before it selects a Steam installation directory, but I'm not sure if it's working in the mentioned issue.
I'm not sure why Steam from the Ubuntu repo is different now.
