Bug/Issue Starbound Crash on Startup (Linux)

I just wanted to report a crash I experience when playing the game on Linux.


Launching the game through Proton (so using the Win32 version) does not have this issue (but isn't a solution for me for various reasons).


Attached is a log of output when running the game from the command line. This crash only occurs when running the game with SteamAPI enabled, either with steam_appid.txt, or by running with Steam.


When I run without Steam the game works just fine.


I ran it with GDB and it seems to be a SteamAPI problem, attached also is a gdb backtrace.
