PayPalValve released a fresh update to the Steam Client Beta, bringing a few useful bug fixes and more work on the new Linux SteamRT3 Beta.
For those that missed it the Linux SteamRT3 Beta is a new container system that the Steam Client can run inside on Linux systems, much the same as how games run inside the Steam Linux Runtime. And, it comes with 64bit support finally too. It's a bit buggy right now, but Valve have already begun improving it.
The full list of changes for March 25th:
