steam-installer 1:1.0.0.78~ds-3 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

steam-installer (1:1.0.0.78~ds-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * d/control: Tighten up steam-libs dependencies to match versions.
    If a user has added Valve's apt repository (but is using our
    steam-installer package in preference to Valve's steam-launcher anyway),
    we want to get Debian's steam-libs rather than Valve's. Because Debian
    is able to target a specific host OS, while Valve is producing generic
    packages for multiple OS versions, Debian is able to set tighter
    dependencies that are more likely to avoid crashes.
  * d/control: Make libnm0:i386 a hard dependency.
    This is one of a few libraries in the Steam Runtime that pulls in
    the old SONAME libudev.so.0, which conflicts with libudev.so.1,
    causing Steam to crash. (Closes: #1041722, steam-for-linux#9805)
  * d/control: Recommend libusb-1.0-0.
    This is another library in the Steam Runtime that can pull in
    the old SONAME libudev.so.0, which conflicts with libudev.so.1.
    (Helps: #1041722, steam-for-linux#9805)
  * d/steam-installer.templates, d/po: Update references to i386 Nvidia driver.
    The cross-architecture packages like nvidia-driver-libs-i386 no longer
    exist, so refer directly to the underlying nvidia-driver-libs:i386
    package. (Closes: #1039996)
  * Remove dangling symlink /usr/share/pixmaps/steam_tray_mono.png
    (Closes: #1039893)

Binary packages built by this source

steam: Transitional package for Steam

 Steam (https://www.steampowered.com) is a software content delivery system
 developed by Valve software (https://www.valvesoftware.com). There is
 some free software available, but for the most part the content delivered
 is non-free.
 .
 This transitional package upgrades from the old steam package to the
 newer steam-installer package.

steam-devices: Device support for Steam-related hardware

 This package provides udev rules for various Steam-related hardware devices
 such as the Steam Controller (gamepad) and the HTC Vive (virtual reality
 headset).

steam-installer: Valve's Steam digital software delivery system

 Steam (https://www.steampowered.com) is a software content delivery system
 developed by Valve software (https://www.valvesoftware.com). There is
 some free software available, but for the most part the content delivered
 is non-free.
 .
 This package provides a script that downloads and installs the Steam client,
 and depends on 32-bit and 64-bit libraries and other components that are
 required by the Steam client. The actual Steam installation and all Steam
 games will be installed into the home directory of each user who runs
 the installer script.
 .
 Because Steam requires 32-bit libraries, before installing this package it
 will be necessary to run, as root:
 .
   dpkg --add-architecture i386; apt update
 .
 Use of Steam is subject to several license agreements and other legal
 terms. Please see <https://store.steampowered.com/subscriber_agreement/>
 and <https://store.steampowered.com/legal/> for more details,
 and pay attention and read carefully if you're worried about your rights.

steam-libs: Metapackage for Steam dependencies

 Steam (https://www.steampowered.com) is a software content delivery system
 developed by Valve software (https://www.valvesoftware.com). There is
 some free software available, but for the most part the content delivered
 is non-free.
 .
 This package depends on libraries and other packages that are necessary
 to run Steam. It could also be useful as a way to install packages that
 are frequently asssumed to exist by proprietary games.

steam-libs-i386: Metapackage for 32-bit Steam dependencies

 Steam (https://www.steampowered.com) is a software content delivery system
 developed by Valve software (https://www.valvesoftware.com). There is
 some free software available, but for the most part the content delivered
 is non-free.
 .
 This package indirectly depends on 32-bit libraries that are necessary
 to run Steam, by depending on the steam-libs:i386 metapackage.
