I tried to start it by writing "an error. You lack the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not start:
libc.so.6

Just update Steam and Runtime (Freedesktop Application Platform) by App Center

  2. In this application run the command:

Hi,
interesting case, the Flatpak β€œorg.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386” is a extension to β€œcom.valvesoftware.Steam” and should normally get installed automatically alongside. Can you please run the following:

flatpak run --command=sh com.valvesoftware.Steam
(a Shell within Steam’s Flatpak Sandbox opens)

ls -la /app/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc*

This will output the available 32 bit libraries provided by the β€œorg.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386” Flatpak. Please post the output here.

This is a known issue with the current version of the App Center in Endless OS. We expect it to be fixed in a forthcoming update, likely 3.6.1 or 3.6.2. In the meantime the workaround is to open a terminal and run:

flatpak install --system flathub org.freedesktop.Platform.Compat.i386 -y

Please do not report this to the Flathub Steam maintainers.

@LeandroStanger on https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam/issues/120 you said:

This has been fixed with the latest Steam Beta update

What did you mean, exactly? (I was never able to reproduce this.)

This bug does not happen with the latest Steam Beta update which contains many fixes and improvements to Steam
