Steam for Linux - launcher

The latest release for Ubuntu LTS is available here: steam_latest.deb

This is a launcher/bootstrapper package containing:

• the steam-devices udev rules
• a minimal version of Steam, enough for the self-update mechanism to download the rest

Installing via apt

For Linux distributions

Stable releases of the Steam launcher can be found in archive/stable/.

New beta releases appear in archive/beta/ first. After testing, the beta is either promoted to archive/stable/, or superseded by a new beta.

The apt package pool in pool/ only contains the newest stable release and the newest beta. Use the version-numbered releases in archive/stable/ or archive/beta/ if you need a stable URL (in Arch PKGBUILDs, Gentoo ebuilds, etc.) or if you need to scan a directory listing to watch for new releases (in debian/watch etc.).
