Looks like the self-update fails in mid update. Try to run a freshly installed steam manually to make sure it's it's up version 34.

If an update is available at a later date it will fail though because steam not writable. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
