I just upgraded yesterday to Bionic Beaver and whenever I try to open up steam a window quickly pops up that says "verifying installation" and then nothing happens. Here's what I get when I try to open it from the terminal:

Running Steam on ubuntu 18.04 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Pins up-to-date!
[2018-04-28 20:44:41] Startup - updater built Apr  2 2018 15:23:43
Looks like steam didn't shutdown cleanly, scheduling immediate update check

[2018-04-28 20:44:41] Nothing to do
[2018-04-28 20:44:41] Verifying installation...
[2018-04-28 20:44:41] Performing checksum verification of executable files
[2018-04-28 20:44:42] Verification complete

I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, and deleting the app cache like this thread recommends.

I had the same issue. Steam worked after running:

sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-390:i386
