I'm having issues with Steam. When I attempt to get it from the USC, it tells me it needs curl. Trying to get curl (using apt-get on the terminal) doesn't work either, instead telling me:

Package curl is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

E: Package 'curl' has no installation candidate

Is there any way to fix this? How do I get curl (and as such, Steam) to work? (And if it helps: on my 10.04 upgraded laptop, it worked fine aside from some graphical glitches)

Using the .deb just brings me to the USC.. for some reason.

Did you try to just install it like this?

sudo apt-get install steam

For some reason installing steam through USC requires you to log in with Ubuntu One, but at least in 14.04 you can just install it like that.
