    Should be able to download the required things through the package or software manager. You’d look up the repo for yad and add what you see. Sorry if this isn’t the most efficient or professional, I’m used to using it on CachyOS but the gist is the same.

        It’ll be alright. It’ll all work out. Sorry I can’t be of further assistance but I’m sure some others will jump on in due time.

            I think the version of yad installed by the OS might be an older one, you can check on the terminal with:

            yad --version

            Fortunately, SteamTinkerLaunch has options to work around that using conty or appimages, see https://github.com/sonic2kk/steamtinkerlaunch/wiki/Yad
