After updating graphics card and during installation of Steam on CentOS 8 I get:

[root@comp pawel]# yum install epel-release
    Error:
     Problem: conflicting requests
      - nothing provides libxcrypt-compat(x86-32) needed by steam-1.0.0.66-2.el8.i686

[root@comp pawel]# yum install libxcrypt-compat
No match for argument: libxcrypt-compat

[root@comp pawel]# yum install libxcrypt

libxcrypt-4.1.1-4.el8.x86_64 is already installed.
libxcrypt-4.1.1-4.el8.i686 is already installed.

I have epel version:

epel-release-8-8.el8.noarch is already installed.

How to install Steam?

If you are on a x64 machine:

sudo dnf -y remove libxcrypt-4.*.i686
wget https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/l/libxcrypt-compat-4.4.17-1.fc34.i686.rpm
sudo rpm -Uhv libxcrypt-compat-4.4.17-1.fc34.i686.rpm --nodeps

That installs on my EL8 system without any broken dependencies:

sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://negativo17.org/repos/epel-steam.repo
sudo dnf yum -y install steam

  • Older Steam package is not longer available. – Malum Wolfram Sep 27 '20 at 00:19
  • Try the el7 package, it should work: https://centos.pkgs.org/7/nux-dextop-x86_64/steam-1.0.0.49-1.el7.i686.rpm.html Steam updates itself anyway, so package version isn't particularly critical. – Gordan Bobić Sep 27 '20 at 00:37

    @music2myear there is no critique or request for clarification. The fact is that the dependencies on the latest el8 rpm are broken, and the only solution is indeed to install an older version of the package that is not broken. – Gordan Bobić Sep 27 '20 at 08:37
  • This is a comment because it lacks the How necessary to fix the problem. If you were to add even rudimentary steps of how OP is to go about doing this it would make this basic and bare statement into an actual answer. – music2myear Sep 27 '20 at 21:57

    @music2myear, there, added both the latest working link for el8, and how to install it. – Gordan Bobić Sep 28 '20 at 10:21
