Installing on Linux[edit | edit source]
It seems like there are conflicting packages on Fedora 26 when enabling RPMFusion which is causing package issues when trying to install steam.
# yum install steam

Error: package steam-1.0.0.54-10.fc26.i686 requires libdbusmenu-gtk2(x86-32) >= 16.04.0, but none of the providers can be installed
- libdbusmenu-gtk2-16.04.0-2.fc26.i686 has inferior architecture
- conflicting requests
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages)
But, if you download the libdbusmenu packages and then install it with the rpms, it works:
# yumdownloader libdbusmenu
(1/2): libdbusmenu-16.04.0-2.fc26.i686.rpm | 136 kB 00:00:00
(2/2): libdbusmenu-12.10.2-11.fc26.x86_64.rpm | 72 kB 00:00:00
# yum install *rpm steam

Is this ok [y/N]:
If I take all the packages that are needed from rpmfusion and place them in my private repository and then disable rpmfusion, steam installs without issue (dnf install steam)
