Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
I can reproduce this issue, but I think that is potentially a security
feature of the gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons. As if you navigate
to the folder in Nautilus, then select open, it allows for running the
game and not opening gedit. And I can see that the permissions of the
file has been set correctly by Steam.
Therefore I am going to reassign this bug from the Steam package to
gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons as it doesn't appear that Steam is
doing anything incorrectly and it is likely due to the desktop icons
implementation (potentially even a security feature).
** Package changed: steam (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell-extension-desktop-
icons (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
