I followed the following steps So first I confirmed that the multiverse Ubuntu repository is enabled:

$ sudo add-apt-repository multiverse
$ sudo apt update

and then I installed the steam package:

$ sudo apt install steam and then I tried to execute the following command:

$ steam

and then;

   libgl1-mesa-dri:i386, libgl1:i386, libc6:i386
[sudo] password for user:```

I enter my password and then this appears:

   libgl1-mesa-dri:i386, libgl1:i386, libc6:i386

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6:i386 : Depends: libgcc-s1:i386 but it is not going to be installed
             Depends: libcrypt1:i386 (>= 1:4.4.10-10ubuntu4) but it is not going to be installed

I press return and then after some time this appears
`You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:

I do not know what to do next. Please help

  • run sudo apt install -f to let apt try to resolve automatically. It also may yield hepful output on why it is not going to be installed that you may add to your question. If that is not working, check this question: https://askubuntu.com/questions/140246/how-do-i-resolve-unmet-dependencies-after-adding-a-ppa – pLumo Aug 25 '20 at 12:58
  • Thank you a lot for answering but it does not work. – kagedsage3503 Aug 26 '20 at 03:03
  • this :i386 is the whole problem, it seems to not work on 20.04 as trying to install :i386 pkgs ends up trying to remove even xorg sometimes! see if schroot works for you: https://askubuntu.com/a/1275742/589343, but I will just try SteamOS or ubuntu18.04 (that as I remember had good i386 support) on vmwareplayer (so I dont have to reboot). – VeganEye Nov 01 '20 at 14:08
