Valve's latest Steam Client update brings a 64-bit Linux application, Steam Runtime containerization, HDR improvements, and crash fixes.

    It seems that multiarch and 32 bits packages are unfortunately still needed: https://mixed-news.com/en/steam-linux-client-64-bit-runtime-container-multilib-still-required/

        “and it requires an X11 server, “either Xwayland or an X11 session”, which leaves a pure Wayland session with no Xwayland unsupported.”

        and still no native Wayland.

          Doesn’t fix the dependancy issue but you can make your life easier by adding PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 to /etc/environment

          At least then it defaults all proton games to pure Wayland instead of XWayland so you don’t have to manually do it for every game.
