It is there as the last one, so I guess I do have it? Then the question is indeed, why isn't steam finding it.
Zyro, I've tried that before, it doesn't add anything new or upgrade anything.
Actually, I don't know if Steam uses your system's libc or its own one... Did you install your Ubuntu according to Valve's guide? As far as I remember, Ubuntu (and Debian) have two sets of 32-bit libs: "ia32-lib-..." packages and multiarched "lib...:i386" libs.
Anyway, you could try in terminal "STEAM_RUNTIME=1 steam", if it faills -- then "STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam", if it fails too -- then "LD_PRELOAD="/lib32/libc.so.6 steam", then "LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/lib32/:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}" steam". Maybe some of them will do. It's just a blind bruteforce guess I could suggest right now.
PS. Ops, Valve doesn't have a guide about Steam on 64-bit. Strange, I remember they had one somewhere...
Here is the script that "Slouken" recommended:
if [] && ! dpkg --print-foreign-architectures | grep i386 >/dev/null; then
echo "Fixing architectures..."
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
fi
Apparently, this has fixed the problem on Ubuntu 12 64 bit that everyone has been experiencing. Please, let me know if you've tried this method before or if it works for you.
P.S. Once completed please run the following script:
~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam
Also, if problem persists could you please run steam in your Ubuntu terminal and copy and paste the results in your response. Thank you.
Sorry I couldn't test your solution, but thanks for the help anyway.
Worked for me well!
You can simply move your games after the reinstallation.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
(Edit the file and add [arch=amd64,i386] after each 'deb', so the deb entries should look something like 'deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/ jessie main')
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 libgl1-mesa-dev:i386
Then just run steam again.
sudo apt-get install libc6-i386
And run steam
