SteamCMD Via Box86 On Termux Not Loading Steam API

[RyuRaiko]

I managed to get SteamCMD working under Box86 a few weeks ago under Termux, however it recently had a update which broke it, I have been trying everything under the sun (including trying to run Steam under Termux which also seems to have issues related to dlopen but for steamui.so instead) to know avail. If anyone could shed some light on what the errors in the log could mean or have ideas I could try please let me know.

Failure of dlopen cannot be reproduced.
(There is another problem occurring, but let's put it behind us for now.)

The error Fatal error: futex robust_list not initialized by pthreads can be reproduced however, I wonder if this means that its currently broken across all devices, might need to wait for something to update perhaps.

[F1mmel]

@shiumano Did you fix it? I face the same exact error.. When trying to launch steamcmd (box86 linux/steamcmd), I get the same error

Is this ticket still valid? It's getting complicated to know what issue this ticket is supposed to track?
