Steam:i386 : Depends: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 (>= 17.3) but it is not going to be installed orĭepends: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 but it is not going to be installedĭepends: libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 but it is not going to be installed The following packages have unmet dependencies: The following information may help to resolve the situation: Requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstableĭistribution that some required packages have not yet been created I am aware of the method of simply manually installing the packages, but that isn't working for me, either. I also tried a full uninstall via deleting. I tried the sudo apt-get autoremove/update/upgrade/dist-upgrade series, and it didn't do anything.ĮDIT: I have also done sudo apt-get clean, and sudo apt-get install -f. Some parts becoming read-only, hence unconfigurable.I have Ubuntu 18.04, not installed directly but upgraded from 16.10, I haven't used Steam in a while on this computer (maybe since before the 18.04 upgrade, don't remember) which led to problems, and after a while of trawling the Internet for possible solutions, I had to admit defeat. I’m thinking more about gaming performance, of course, not the client’s per se
Hence, on one hand, I’m interested with the idea of Steam being Snapped, which would possibly put the nail in the coffin of it being admin ever.īut on the other hand, I’ve read about issues with the Snap system, such as :
So I started using Steam on Linux a few weeks ago, but I’m concerned about how Steam suddenly deciding to require admin privileges could impact my system, and would likely mean I would have to ban it again. Note that installing the wrapper adds Steam repositories to your sources.list, which is a no-go for me. I only installed the dependencies as admin, but I don’t have a problem with that, as long as they’re part of the Ubuntu distribution. I didn’t even install the wrapper on my system, only unpacked the deb, looked at how it started, and did the whole thing as a standard user. Steam requiring admin privileges on Windows, with it being basically unable to run without the Steam service, and additionally modifying the NTFS ACLs, is the reason why I banned it for more than ten years, and I discovered only recently that there is a way to have the Linux client set up and running with standard user privileges only.
