I'm brand new to Ubuntu and trying to install steam. I downloaded steam_latest.deb and installed it, but whenever I try to open it it gives me this:

Steam needs to install these additional packages: 

libgl1-mesa-dri:i386, libgl1-mesa-glx:i386, libc6:i386

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

E: Unable to locate package libgl1-mesa-dri:i386

E: Unable to locate package libgl1-mesa-glx:i386

E: Unable to locate package libc6:i386

Press return to continue:

Literally any help is appreciated I am so lost ;v;

You might not have support for 32-bit architecture (i386) enabled. It is disabled by default in 64-bit installs. Try this from the terminal:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Then update your package list

sudo apt update

Try opening Steam again, and hopefully you will now be able to install the needed packages.
