Are you sure you're running steam-native? I get the exact same issue with `steam-native`, while `steam` has a working browser (but some games have other issues). It seems unlikely to me that steam would require libpcre.so.3 only for some users but not for others.
Yes, I am sure. But to be double sure I've ran it from the shell. No issues with the store page.
While it is definitely a problem caused by upstream, they officially only support some Ubuntu distributions. There's no guarantee that steam will solve this on their end.
If we can argue, I don't see why they wouldn't.
Also, the patch you referred to, is not an actual patch, just a package that creates an ugly fix, by creating a symlink to libpcre. That's not the right way to fix this issue.
A better fix is mentioned on the steam forum [1] by a WorMzy:
$ export LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0:/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0" $ steam-native
Apparently those libraries still come from the steam distribution, even with steam-native, and those pull in libpcre.so.3 and libselinux.so.1. Preloading the system versions avoids that.

Now a patch I can agree on. Given that steam-runtime is all about LD preloading stuff, there would be the place to fix this, if we can't get this fixed upstream. Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini
