Details
after upgrading some packages, steam ceased to start
properly:
http://paste.kde.org/p2e7ece7c/
it just spins up the CPU and outputs some (afaik irrelevant) messages: http://paste.kde.org/p8120175b/ when started as STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam, it gives more information, but nothing i can make sense of: http://paste.kde.org/p458fc19f/ the most interesting part is: Assert( Assertion Failed: ClientAPI_InitGlobalInstance: InternalAPI_Init_Internal failed, most likely because you are missing a 32-bit dependency of steamclient.so (the Steam client is a 32-bit app). so what’s missing? |

Reason for closing: Upstream
Additional comments about closing: it was an update in the steam beta stuff, you can always backup Steamapps directory and use steam --reset
