$ steam running steam on ubuntu 16.10 64-bit steam_runtime enabled automatically /bin/bash: /home/jis/.local/share/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5: no version information available (required /bin/bash) grep: symbol lookup error: grep: undefined symbol: pcre_jit_stack_alloc grep: symbol lookup error: grep: undefined symbol: pcre_jit_stack_alloc grep: symbol lookup error: grep: undefined symbol: pcre_jit_stack_alloc installing breakpad exception handler appid(steam)/version(1476379980) libgl error: unable load driver: i965_dri.so libgl error: driver pointer missing libgl error: failed load driver: i965 libgl error: unable load driver: i965_dri.so libgl error: driver pointer missing libgl error: failed load driver: i965 libgl error: unable load driver: swrast_dri.so libgl error: failed load driver: swrast 

notes: tried of solutions

$rm ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6  $rm ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 

and

$ld_preload='/usr/$lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/$lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/$lib/libxcb.so.1 /usr/$lib/libgpg-error.so' /usr/bin/steam 

but nothing worked me.

so can me, please.

i updated system 16.10, had update steam stated in this message, lists forum thread provided @patrick negus unfortunately seems no longer work. worked when still existed. see if can remember process.

copy directories "steamapps" , "userdata" believe /usr/.steam/steam , save them desktop if have games installed.

in terminal type: sudo apt-get remove --purge steam-launcher remove steam

remove /usr/.steam directory, , steam directory in home

then remove repository: sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:steam

update repositories: sudo apt-get update

now reinstall steam: sudo apt-get install steam

move saved directories home/.steam/steam

edit steam script in /usr/games/ add 2 lines before last line starting test:

find $runtime -name libgcc_s.so* -delete find $runtime -name libxcb.so* -delete

i sure got couple of things wrong, please double-check still new , going memory.
