In any case I don't see how this is materially different from Windows where it's the norm for every game to ship its own libraries and install various redistributables to function.
- mitxela 28d agoOn Windows those libraries are part of the application package. On Linux they're supposedly part of the OS, they're designed to be part of the OS and the loader is trying to get them from the OS, but is redirected to get them from the wrapper layer provided by the store (neither the application nor the OS!) instead.
