Package: steam-installer Version: 1:1.0.0.85~ds-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, The included /usr/share/doc/steam-installer/examples/50-steam-no-admin-actions.rules that is suggested in the README denies all PackageKit polkit requests. This breaks KDE Plasma's Discover and possibly GNOME Software, both of which rely on PackageKit. Packages are unable to be installed, updated or refreshed. The rule should be narrower in scope to only include Steam or at least a warning should be placed somewhere. -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.17.13+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages steam-installer depends on: ii dbus-user-session [default-dbus-session-bus] 1.16.2-2+b1 ii dbus-x11 [dbus-session-bus] 1.16.2-2+b1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.91 ii lsof 4.99.4+dfsg-2 ii steam-libs 1:1.0.0.85~ds-2 ii steam-libs-i386 1:1.0.0.85~ds-2 ii xdg-user-dirs 0.19-1 ii zenity 4.1.99-1 steam-installer recommends no packages. steam-installer suggests no packages.
