Public bug reported:

in hirsute (21.04) steam (steam/hirsute 1:1.0.0.68-1ubuntu1) displays
it's client window as completely black, with no visible contents.

if started from a console the line:

<user-home-directory>.steam/ubuntu12_64/steamwebhelper.sh: line 23:
124402 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) ./steamwebhelper "$@"

keeps looping past.

in the syslog a stack of messages like this:

[10787.795446] steamwebhelper[36492]: segfault at c068 ip 00007f42d82c1d12 sp

08 4c 31 e0 48 f7 d0 49 39 c7 0f 85 9d 02 00 00 8d 41 01

appear, indicating a crash in libcef.so which is part of the steam
installation. i think this lib may be a part of the chromium based
webview which steam appears to use.

locate finds libcef.so at <user-home-
directory>/.steam/ubuntu12_64/libcef.so

the problem was not present with steam on 20.10 but is present with
steam on 21.04 .

on triage please let me know if any other info would be of use, cheers.
