📄 Description

On Debian bullseye with Steam installed via Debian repo and a game installed that uses Paradox Interactive Launcher a folder is required to be whitelisted for the launcher to open.
Without the folder being whitelisted the Paradox Launcher will fail to load with a 'permission denied' error and it will ask to reinstall the launcher, which also fails.

Adding this folder to the whitelist corrects the problem

whitelist ${HOME}/.paradoxlauncher
