Made? Steam runs natively on Linux.

I made my PC work by pressing the power button. Linux devs made it work by writing and releasing Linux and countless utilities and applications. Let's call it a draw.

Not quite. You need to try 3 different howtos that fail. You need to realize that the broken dependecies won't get fixed even it's about the current time64_t effort that is going on. It's because the howto is simply crap. Then you find one that you haven't tried, yet.

Then it's easy: add the official steam apt repository, get the signing key and apt-install steam package with some few dependencies.

this is why i use debian for work/servers where i need reliability anfd slow paced stable software and fedora at home where the odd bug or faulty update (which rarely happens) don't bother me that much. debian is awesome though
