Have you tried spinning up a Debian Distrobox, and installing the .deb files within the distrobox?

And to install the ProtonVPN/Pass, download the two .deb installers from Proton's website. Run Boxbuddy in Bazzite desktop - create a new Distrobox with Debian 12 And when its finished, click "Install .deb file" and install those two .deb files that you downloaded from ProtonVPN/Pass

Or download the EA app installer, and add to Steam as a Non-Steam Game.

just as a note, anyone who install this will be told by us to uninstall it and remove its prefix before getting any help from us, is it really that hard to read https://canary.discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1221849550688489483/1221849550688489483 Use Heroic Games Launcher for Epic, GOG and Amazon use Lutris for everything else that is not steam

Thanks Hikari, I had installed NonSteam Launchers (desktop) in early 2024, and it had worked fine. Apparently it doesn't even work on Bazzite at this time, much less as you mentioned for monolithic prefixes
