That's apparently something Wayland-related, so you might need to update your libwayland-client. Or, yes, use your system's or Steam's libSDL2 instead of theirs.
thanks, found the right repo and updated wayland stuff to 1.9 and that solved it too

Valve Rep Confirms Why Some Games Have Their SteamOS Icon Removed

This makes the situation much more clear, and should help both desktop Linux and SteamOS look better for everyone to play games.
reallly ?

- it does not help desktop because now if a linux users looks at (for example a Java based game) they will not see the SteamOS icon and thus have totally no idea it runs just fine on Linux.
- for developers of the Java based game (as an example again) this means less Linux people will buy their game.

This make it clear for SteamOS, totally agree, but this does not make it clear for Linux users.

Steam Reaches Over 1,500 Linux Games, It's Not Enough

6470 windows games includes really old ones that will never be ported.
Only good representation would be to split those 6470 up in:

AAA (Modern)
AAA (+2 Years)
Regular (of what ever you want to call it)
Indy
Old

and then show windows vs linux, I would guess indy would come quiet high in % while AAA as Liam says will be really low

I really wanted to like SR:HK but the whole matrix thing is making me avoid plugging in and if I have to I find my self quiting the game pretty soon, biggest spoiler for me.

So I have to say PC based its the eye of the beholder series from GoG, console based I finally finished Witcher 3, on to Metal Gear Solid :)
