Do the installers work correctly in LTS releases? If they don't, then I
agree, it's a candidate for removal.

Could you elaborate?

I'm personally hesitant to endorse removals "just because there's a
snap" but if it bitrots over time/is insecure then I think it certainly
needs to be removed.

[Bug 1754852] Re: Steam Installer cannot be found using GNOME Software anymore
AsciiWolf, I think the AppStream generator got more strict.
Personally, I'd like to just remove the steam .deb packages in Ubuntu
completely.
1. It does not integrate well in GNOME Software because of the 32-bit issue,
which I hacked around earlier.
2. It breaks badly with the "Install Steam" .deb you can find on the Steam
website.
I'd like us to just offer the Steam Snap that Solus is working on
("Linux Steam Integration"). I hope that will be ready in time for
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Actually, Jeremy is the one who added the extra steam-installer package. I'm not exactly sure how to get this to work all in one package without regressing something.
