To fix this you need to uninstall the steam-launcher package: sudo apt remove steam-launcher
remove repo.steampowered.com from your sources and then install the steam package from multiverse: sudo apt install steam Once you've done this, run Steam and let it sort out its install/update/etc., then close it and move the apps and data directories to the new location: mv ~/.steam/steamapps ~/.steam/steamapps.orig ## just in case mv ~/.steam/userdata ~/.steam/userdata.org ## just in case mv ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps ~/.steam/steamapps mv ~/.local/share/Steam/userdata ~/.steam/userdata You should then be able to start Steam without the error and have all your games and saves still available. I'm not sure whether there is a practical way to do this automatically since the originally installed Steam package isn't from a Ubuntu supplied location. It might be possible to add a conflict in the steam package and automatically move the directories with a bit of experimentation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562645 Title: Steam Package out of date error message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/steam/+bug/1562645/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
