SteamPlay titles pop up as update-able all the time
Julius Aug 23, 2018
Does anyone else have the strange issue that game added with SteamPlay/Proton pop up in the update query all the time, but do not actually have any updates to download? They just jump to the completed part after the update was started...

Not really a big issue, but quite annoying.

When Proton gets an update, all added games are shown as requiring to update. Only one of them is shown as downloading an update (it's actually an update for Proton), others are 0 bytes in size.

Ahh, ok. Lots of Proton updates right now then ;)

Yep. Today's update was 384 mb.

This happened a while back on Native Steam Linux games, they did finally release a patch that fixed it, but it wasn't overnight.
