Moved ~/.local/share/steam. Ran steam. It deleted everything owned by user
Reminds me of a bug with the Myth II uninstaller immortalized by the following Penny Arcade cartoon:<p><a href="http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/1999/01/06" rel="nofollow">http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/1999/01/06</a><p>Basically, they called delete tree. If the user installed or moved the game to a different location, say, the <i>root</i>, it would delete tree away somebody's whole computer. Fun times.
