So 1.0.0.67-2 has landed in hiruste (which is much closer to debian
sid). I also plan to sync hirsute again before freezes and then intend
to continue updating ubuntu devel to be as close as possible to debian
sid - I will also investigate any SRU opportunities to fix features that
are broken in
For anyone following, I've reported bug 1901689 to attempt to bring
Ubuntu hirsute back into sync with the current Debian sid version, I'll
update that bug as progress is made. Then we can hopefully close this
one if I am successful.

SRU/backports) over this cycle before removing from the archive. As
there are currently
Steam is outdated again since Groovy, is not automatically synced from
Debian (because of Ubuntu patches/changes that were not backported to
Debian) and seems to have no active maintainer in Ubuntu. I think that

Some updates regarding points from the original Bug Description:
ad 1. This should be (partially) fixed in the updated Debian version of
steam package: "Add Conflicts/Replaces on steam-launcher."
ad 2. Maybe gnome-software could be fixed to show 32-bit deb packages?

The outdated packages will cause problems for users (most users will
probably use them instead of the official Valve package) when Ubuntu
Focal is released. Please,
Here is a changelog from Debian that contains all the new versions that
happened after 1.0.0.54+repack-5ubuntu1:

Any news here? The steam* packages are still available in the Ubuntu
20.04 repositories in an outdated form (1.0.0.54+repack-5ubuntu1
released in February 2018). Please, either update them (1.0.0.61-2 is

Until this is resolved (which it hasn't been yet), I don't think it's
obviously correct that we
I believe the steam-installer does "work". It's just not ideal (it's not
