Hi!

I am trying to start Steam but nothing happens. I reinstalled it but still nothing after I press it.
How can I make it work?

Thank you!

/usr/games/steam
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
xz: (stdin): File format not recognized
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
find: ‘/home/osomfinch/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime’: No such file or directory

Maybe you can try to delete "~/.steam" and "~/.local/share/Steam", reopen steam to update

Oh wow. I only had it in "~/.steam". I deleted it and it started updating.
And no everything seems to work!
Thank you a lot!

Steam needs curl to download files but Deepin is not installed by default.
Try run these in termianl:

sudo aptitude install curl libcurl3
rm ~/.steam
rm ~/.local/share/Steam
steam

Copy the Code

For Deepin developer:
https://bbs.deepin.org/user/48640 我当时也遇到一样的问题啊，刚装上的Deepin无法运行Steam，找了半天原因，最后说是没有curl。
你们新装的测试机，真的能在没有curl的状态下启动预装的Steam？
