winehq-stable breaks Steam

Post by guru4hire »

Note: I am not a sophisticated user of linux or wine. I can google my way through most things.

I installed winehq in order to install Roblox on my new Ubuntu 22.04 installation from the PPA as written on the Winehq website which at present installing 8.0.0~jammy.

When I install winehq, I am unable to launch xcom enemy unknown from the steam client (linux client as installed via apt "sudo apt install steam")

When I remove winehq and autoremove the dependencies, steam and xcom work as expected. I believe there is some conflict between the 2 somewhere.

Any ideas?
