Managed to delete my comment by mistake (sorry for the two notifications)

If a common library like zlib is in a non-standard place or is not symlinked to a standard place then I've seen GOG games fail to launch. Steam's vendoring approach makes supporting a variety of distros much easier.

    Which is wierd. The only way I can imagine this happaning is linking to a library by absolute path. Can you check binary with ldd?

    5-minutes google-fu says you can use patchelf to fix issue, but you better check with ldd and report as bug.
