Wine 3.14 steam client not working output of the console when trying to switch
online

Hi everybody.

Since the release of the new steam client with the new chat feature, I'm unable
to display friends online, and switch my status to online myself. A consequence
is the inability to join friends game for example in Age Of Empires (the only
game I use steam with wine for, but I expect it to be the same for all the
games).

Steps to reproduce:
- Launch steam with wine
- On the bottom right of the main windows, click on "Friends & chat"

Expected behavior:
The window with my online friends should appear

What happens:
Nothing at all

Steps to reproduce:
- On the top main menu of the steam windows, click on "Friends" then "Online"
to switch your status to online

Expected behavior:
Your status is now online

What happens:
You're stuck on the offline status.

Please not that steam is perfectly able to connect to the network. For example,
I can create a public game in Age of Empires II and then my friends or any
other player will be able to join and we will play as usual. The network
feature is not broken, it's the new chat with all the online status which is
broken.

Also note that if I click "invite" inside the game, the window which doesn't
show when click "Friends & chat" appear but is empty, as if I was the only one
online. 

wine --version
wine-3.14 (Staging), but it was still broken with wine 3.13, it's the update of
the steam client which broke it, not the update of wine.

Please find attached the output of the console when launching steam, then a few
empty spaces and then trying to click on Friends and chat.

Steam version published the 8th of August, package version 1533766730.
