Close Steam and run this command.
However you installed it, try uninstalling it, then re-download it, then re-install it.
Make sure you back up your game library's folder first before doing so!

2. Some topics related to similar issues suggest the part of system library is being used or the steam linux runtime is not updated, or something in between... Even though I found a GitHub issue closed with "disabling the LD_* Steam runtime is not supported."
a) Try forcing using your system lib file, and check the errors from there on...
3. As last resort, nuke the whole Steam install and reinstall it all clean (I think you can keep the games library directory if you don't store it in the default location - which is ~/.local/share/Steam/).
Sorry if this isn't a direct solution to the particular problem, but I'm confident it's an overall timesaver.
Steam's broken after an update three times over just the past month where wiping and reinstalling was the only fix, for me.
It's a poorly written garbage app, expecting it to fail regularly is a sane choice.
Never had that, in over ten years.
Still get the following error:
That's why I thought a force update from the terminal would fix it, because it's just downloading the latest Steam client and runtime from Valve, not from the distro repos.
As I said earlier it might work pointing out to the distro libs (/usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0). You could also try overwriting the dynamic library file in the steam-runtime directory with the one from the system. Or you could remove the steam-runtime and see if Steam has some kind of fallback mechanism that will look for the dynamic libs from the system, if the local runtime ones are not available.
libgio-2.0.so.0 is a symlink to a similar file name, with some kind of version at the end. What is the version you have?
Also check your steam-runtime version
Steam client version seems to be in a manifest...
