Bug Description

I was installing Steam for Ubuntu 12.04 on a x64 version of Ubuntu, think that Steam did not foresee that there could be users using an x64 platform. Please help upgrading Steam to use an x64 platform, or Ubuntu 12.04 so it can use 32-bit libraries.

Thankx :)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure can be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. If this does resolve your bug please set its status to Invalid. Thanks in advance!
