Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-life on April 29, 2021. No longer supported so closing Xenial tasks as "Invalid" (should be "Won Fix"). ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: appstream (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Confirmed => Invalid **

At this point, I think it's safe to say that implementing full multiarch support for AppStream simply isn't going to happen. It's simply better for app authors to provide native implementations for amd64 instead of relying on i386 compatibility. If support was implemented fully, we would

[Bug 1564570] Re: Gnome Software catalog entry missing for Steam except on i386

Yes, I assume it would happen on Debian if you are running i386! Otherwise, steam is uninstallable in GNOME Software (that's what this bug is originally about, and I haven't forwarded my changes to Debian yet). I can verify the debconf issue with GNOME Software using the PK backend on Ubuntu.

[Bug 1564570] Re: Gnome Software catalog entry missing for Steam except on i386

Does this happen on Debian as well? In that case, this would be a quite serious bug, and we probably need to have GNOME Software pass a Debconf socket to PackageKit in Debian as well. If this issue isn't happening in Debian (I never tested it...) then I would bet it's in Ubuntu's APT backend for

Matthias, I'm not familiar enough with debconf to know our policy, but Debian's steam will get stuck half-installed unless the response has been set some how. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/311078503/steam_1%3A1.0.0.54+repack- 2ubuntu3_1%3A1.0.0.54+repack-2ubuntu4.diff.gz -- You received this

[Bug 1564570] Re: Gnome Software catalog entry missing for Steam except on i386

At least with GNOME Software's PK backend, we set the Debconf mode to noninteractive if the frontend doesn't give us a Debconf-socket to communicate. So, if GS block on it, I would assume that this is a bug in Ubuntu's APT backend for GNOME Software, and not an issue specific to the steam

Ok, I have a partial solution for this in zesty-proposed. (It's in -proposed because it needs an Archive Admin to let the arch:all package depend on an arch:i386 similar to how pixfrogger was handled LP: #1585058) The problem is the installation fails because of a debconf prompt. I get the

I'm reopening the steam task. I've not looked into it yet, but perhaps we can workaround this issue by adding a new steam-meta (or whatever you want to call it) binary for every architecture that contains the minimum data needed by appstream? And then have that new steam-meta binary depend on
