Description:
When a friend is in a multiplayer game that supports the steam friends API, it is supposed to allow you to rightclick 'join' his team. This option is missing. This is due to the package 'lsof' not being installed, yet being required.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
1.0.0.59-1
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5549 Known issue

Steps to reproduce:
install steam, make sure lsof is not installed. Login & rightclick a friend who is in e.g. a Dota 2 lobby (any game supporting steam friends API can be used). The 'join game' and 'launch game' options are missing.
Now close steam, install lsof, start steam, and you will be able to see these options.

How to solve:
Install the lsof package

does installing lsof fix this issue for you?
Comment by Robin (ThaChillera) - Wednesday, 29 April 2020, 09:20 GMT
Yes it does, my proposed fix is adding lsof to steam's dependencies
