[Solved] Missing libraries
I was initially getting segfaults on running steam in the terminal, so I tried to install the amd proprietary drivers for my APU, but ended up screwing up my install to the point of losing the GUI. I reinstalled and now am getting a missing library error:

$ STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam
Running Steam on linuxmint 2 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is disabled by the user
Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libXtst.so.6
libXrandr.so.2
libgobject-2.0.so.0
libglib-2.0.so.0
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
libpulse.so.0
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0
libbz2.so.1.0

I found This thread and tried:

$ sudo apt-get install lib32z1

and

$ sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5

but I'm still getting the errors, anyone have any ideas what's wrong?

Edit: Running LMDE 2, installed the client from the software manager

Edit 2: I manually searched the software manager for each library and installed them, then opened vgui2_s.so and steamclient.so and installed the missing libraries from there.

I ended up just manually finding and installing each library with the software manager and running with STEAM_RUNTIME=0 and it's working now.
