Package: steam-launcher Version: 1.0.0.54 Severity: important Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? apt-get install steam-launcher, then running steam to install the steam client * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Initially I tried the solutions as shown on various websites to get around the missing libGL.so.1:i386, including trying to symlink from mesa. But mesa was not so much the problem. The big issue is that mesa, nvidia, and amd all provide their own versions of libGL.so.1:i386 and there should be a check for the installed graphics drivers at install of steam-launcher, then symlink the correct one or prompt the installation of the missing driver files. In my case libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386. * What was the outcome of this action? After libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386 was installed alongside libgl1-mesa-glx:i386, the steam client ran fine. * What outcome did you expect instead? The requirement of libGL.so.1:i386 for the Steam client has been known for years now. There should be a simple ifexist for it and the configuration process should install the relative package if it does not, or prompt the user to. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (910, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (175, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages steam-launcher depends on: ii curl 7.52.1-5+deb9u5 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii python 2.7.13-2 ii python-apt 1.4.0~beta3 ii xterm 327-2 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.2+b1 ii zenity 3.22.0-1+b1 Versions of packages steam-launcher recommends: pn jockey-common <none> steam-launcher suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
