Original Report
===============
I downloaded Ubuntu 13.10 32bit daily build. I installed it on newly created
filesystem. I updated it via sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. I
added to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddebs.list link to debug symbols. I updated
and upgraded. I installed apport-retrace and suggested packages. I restarted
system. I downloaded .deb file of steam from official valve page. I wanted to
install steam, so I clicked on .deb, then I confirmed that deb is trustworthly,
and it is the point where crash occured. But window of software-center there is
still visible and I could continue the installation.
