Description

When run in a Flatpak with com.valvesoftware.Steam.Utility.alvr, cf. https://github.com/alvr-org/ALVR/wiki/Flatpak, Steam appears to have trouble loading /app/share/vulkan/explicit_layer.d/alvr_x86_64.json, because it cannot find ../../../lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so:

pressure-vessel-wrap[9482]: W: Unable to look up resolved path "/app/share/vulkan/explicit_layer.d/../../../lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so" in provider

In the Flatpak, the library is located at /app/utils/alvr/lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so and not /app/lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so.

sed -i s,../../../lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so,/app/utils/alvr/lib64/libalvr_vulkan_layer.so, /app/share/vulkan/explicit_layer.d/alvr_x86_64.json executed from within flatpak enter com.valvesoftware.Steam /bin/bash makes that error message no longer appear.

General Troubleshooting

• [x] I carefully followed the instructions in the README and successfully completed the setup wizard
• [x] I read the ALVR Wikis here and here

We now package the launcher in the flatpak instead, so this should no longer occur.
