Steam Proton doesn't works

Try opening steam via a terminal and opening a game. You should see the problem launching the game in the terminal, might be permissions.

What games? Which Steam Proton and Wine-GE versions do we talk about?
BTW there is also a Proton GE and you can use it in Steam as well. Just saying. Some games do need a specific Steam Proton version, either an older or newer one, such as Proton Experimental. Some games are only working with Proton GE (or Wine GE).
And you can always lookup if the game works, by looking into reports from Protondb website (user generated).

wrong ELF class
Maybe something something 32 bit vs 64 bit?

wrong ELF class
Maybe something something 32 bit vs 64 bit?
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/cannot-run-steam-ld-preload-cannot-be-preloaded/140902 <-- first result of internet search. Maybe this could be something to get you started on troubleshooting.

Advice: I don't recommend using wine-ge because it has not been maintained in a while and it's archived on github

You have. Download Protonge manually from https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases and unpack the archive into "~/.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d/". Each Proton version has its own folder. Restart Steam then you can use Proton GE from there. Its like Wine GE, but optimized for Steam.
And what games are you playing? You can also lookup each game in Protondb as linked before. Protondb is a database of user reports, with often useful information.

Also I noticed this:
setlocale "en_US.UTF-8": No such file or directory pv-locale-gen: Missing locale en_US.UTF-8 pv-locale-gen: Generating locale ru_RU.UTF-8... pv-locale-gen: Generated locale ru_RU.UTF-8 successfully pv-locale-gen: Generating locale en_US.UTF-8... pv-locale-gen: Generated locale en_US.UTF-8 successfullyAnd uncommented the line
# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8in the file/etc/locale.gen, then ransudo locale-gen. Now this message doesn't shows, but games still don't works -

The problem is almost certainly your OS.
Devuan does not use systemd, it uses ... sysvinit, or OpenRC, or runnit.
Basically the entire linux ecosystem is built around and on top of systemd... other init based OSs that try to run most linux software... will encounter many absurd and esoteric problems, all of which ultimately stem from the fact that the vast majority of linux software is developed with systemd as the default, assumed, init system.
Basically, any Linux OS that doesn't use systemd should be considered entirely experimental, beyond any software that the OS devs explicitly state they support.
Some non-systemd OS developers will dedicate time to either forking or patching certain, specific, existing software or libraries to be compatible with all the init systems their OS supports, but realistically, given the niche nature of such OSs and their small dev teams, they are always going to be months to years behind the current support level for systemd based OSs.
You could attempt to fix this specific issue you are having, but it would likely require you to essentially become an OS developer.
It would be vastly easier to simply switch from Devuan over to standard Debian, which runs Steam and Proton and such pretty much just fine.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I truly wish there was some simple misconfiguration that you could change, or some reasonable hotfix that could easily be trouble shot by randos on lemmy...
But in all likelihood... yeah, you'd have to basically develop Devuan to support Proton, or develop Proton to support Devuan, or potentially both.
If you wanna do gaming on linux, right now I'd suggest Bazzite as probably the most user friendly, hard to break, runs games and most other software well alternative.
You could also just switch back to plain Debian, its not quitr as user friendly or gamer optimized, but it absolutely will work.
On the other hand, if you wanna jump into a different Debian based system... PikaOS is still somewhat experimental, but it is basically a stripped down and gamer-optimized version of Debian, its based on systemd so you won't have these kinds of problems... and from recent benchmark tests I've seen, it actually outperforms Bazzite, Nobara, CentOS, many other common distros typically suggested for linux gaming... meaning, more FPS for the same game at the same settings on the same hardware.
