Hello,

You are using wine-1.6.2 which is obsolete. A lot of changes have happened in
wine. And I presume this is a duplicate of other bugs we already hqd.

Please upgrade to either the latest stable release (today 1.8.0) or the latest
development release (today 1.9.1).

And then test again in a fresh WINEPREFIX.

If it were to crash again, then in addition to backtrace, please also attach
terminal output.

Cheers,
Marc

The only issue here is the wine version. Steam is so generally used that we
should know by now if it has more issues than reported ones. You need to
upgrade your wine 1.8 or 1.9 series.

No download. No answer from the OP since 4 years.
Anyway, tons of bugs for steam are already reported.

Can an administrator close this bug as ABANDONED.

Steam has worked on Debian/Mint and Ubuntu for some time.
