📄 Description

This should fix the issue with migrating from ubuntu to fedora steam profiles.
From what i have learned testing the script manually it should work however steam will still cleanup your compatabilitytools.d direcctory that probably happens during the first setup of steam on fedora and is not avoidable.

Mind you i have only run the commands on my profile-data manually not build the container image.
