I have just installed steam using the .deb that can be downloaded from the Steam website.
After installed the .deb file attempting to launch Steam using the icon gives me no results. When trying to launch Steam from the console this is the output that I get:

I have spent some time looking around for answers but have not come up with anything that has worked for me yet. Any input would be helpful.
