Hi,

Im trying to setup experimental server on linux by following this guide.
However the app_update step produces a timeout:

Steam Console Client (c) Valve Corporation
-- type 'quit' to exit --
Loading Steam API...OK.

Steam>login anonymous

Connecting anonymously to Steam Public...Logged in OK
Waiting for license info...OK

Steam>app_update 258550 -beta experimental validate
 Update state (0x0) : Timed out waiting for update to start, bailing.
Success! App '258550' fully installed.

Steam>

Regardless of the success message no dedicated server files are being downloaded.

I've ruled out firewall problems by checking the policies:

$ sudo iptables -L|grep policy
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)

And by trying to app_update a different game (l4d2):

Steam Console Client (c) Valve Corporation
-- type 'quit' to exit --
Loading Steam API...OK.

Steam>login anonymous

Connecting anonymously to Steam Public...Logged in OK
Waiting for license info...OK

Steam>app_update 222860
 Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)
 Update state (0x61) downloading, progress: 0.49 (40186125 / 8144583860)
 Update state (0x61) downloading, progress: 0.52 (42724734 / 8144583860)
 Update state (0x61) downloading, progress: 0.60 (49004100 / 8144583860)
-- snip --

A look at Rust dedicated server in steamdb shows that the linux depot has a size of 0 bytes.

This is also confirmed by file steamapps/appmanifest_258550.acf:

"AppState"
{
        "AppID"         "258550"
        "Universe"              "1"
        "name"          "Rust Dedicated Server"
        "StateFlags"            "4"
        "installdir"            "rust_dedicated"
        "LastUpdated"           "1419261627"
        "UpdateResult"          "0"

        "BytesToDownload"               "0"
        "BytesDownloaded"               "0"
        "AutoUpdateBehavior"            "0"
        "AllowOtherDownloadsWhileRunning"               "0"
        "UserConfig"
        {
                "betakey"               "experimental"
        }
        "MountedDepots"
        {
                "258552"                "9185221819162500208"
        }
}

Is it suposed to be 0 Bytes ? Am i missing something or is the dedicated linux server build system broken?

Thank you in advance.
