    **Game information**
    Worms W.M.D.

    **Distribution name and version where applicable**
    Manjaro 20.1.1 (Mikah)

    **Problem description**
    Worms doesn't launch out of the box without two small tweaks.
    When launching Worms W.M.D. in Manjaro and Archlinux, you need to do two things:
    1) Install this apps: `sudo pacman -S libcurl-gnutls libidn11 qt5-base qt5-xcb-private-headers`
    2) Edit file "Run.sh" in Worms W.M.D. directory, usually it's located here: `~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/WormsWMD/Run.sh`, and replace it's content with this:
    ```
    #!/bin/bash
    export LC_ALL=C
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib"
    export LD_PRELOAD="$(
    printf "%s " ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/WormsWMD/lib/libQt5*.so* \
    ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdbus-1.so.3 \
    ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdbus-1.so.3.5.8
    )"
    chmod a+x ./Worms\ W.M.Dx64
    ./Worms\ W.M.Dx64
    ```
    Finally, you can launch Worms WMD either through Steam (by pressing play and choosing "Run with Run.sh", or via CLI by just ./Run.sh.

    **Does this issue reproduce with native Steam**
    Yes, the issue seems like an upstream Steam Linux WMD distribution bug.
