Do you use Steam on Ubuntu? You may have to switch to a new Linux distro in the future. A Valve developer announced that Steam won’t officially support Ubuntu 19.10 or future releases. Ubuntu-based Linux distributions are also affected.

您在Ubuntu上使用Steam吗？ 将来可能需要切换到新Linux发行版。 Valve的一位开发人员宣布Steam将不再正式支持Ubuntu 19.10或更高版本。 基于UbuntuLinux发行版也会受到影响。

Update: In response to “the huge amount of feedback this weekend,” Canonical announced plans to continue building 32-bit compatibility packages for Ubuntu 19.10 and 20.04 LTS. Valve now says Steam will “likely” support Ubuntu 19.10.

更新 ：为响应“本周末的大量反馈”，Canonical 宣布计划继续为Ubuntu 19.10和20.04 LTS构建32位兼容性软件包。 Valve现在说Steam将“可能”支持Ubuntu 19.10 。

This is all because Canonical announced plans to drop 32-bit packages and libraries from Ubuntu 19.10. These packages enable 32-bit software to run on 64-bit versions of Ubuntu.

这是因为Canonical宣布了计划从Ubuntu 19.10 删除32位软件包和库的计划。 这些软件包使32位软件可以在64位版本的Ubuntu上运行。

While most Linux applications will get along just fine, this is a huge blow to Valve’s Steam. Many Linux games on Steam are only available in 32-bit form—they work on 64-bit Linux distributions, but only with the 32-bit libraries. As Phoronix recently pointed out, this also affects the Wine compatibility layer that allows running Windows software on Linux—Wine won’t be able to run 32-bit Windows software anymore. Steam’s compatibility layer for running Windows games on Linux would also not work for 32-bit games.

尽管大多数Linux应用程序都可以很好地相处，但这对Valve的Steam来说是巨大的打击。 Steam上的许多Linux游戏仅提供32位格式，它们只能在64位Linux发行版上运行，但只能与32位库一起使用。 正如Phoronix最近指出的那样，这也影响了Wine兼容性层，该层允许在Linux上运行Windows软件-Wine将不再能够运行32位Windows软件。 Steam的用于在Linux上运行Windows游戏的兼容性层也不适用于32位游戏。

After Canonical’s announcement, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais tweeted that Ubuntu 19.10 and future releases “will not be officially supported by Steam or recommended to our users.” Valve will officially support and recommend a different Linux distribution in the future.

在Canonical宣布之后，Valve的Pierre-Loup Griffais发推文称，Ubuntu 19.10和将来的版本“不会得到Steam的正式支持，也不会推荐给我们的用户。” Valve将在将来正式支持并推荐其他Linux发行版。

Ubuntu 19.10 and future releases will not be officially supported by Steam or recommended to our users. We will evaluate ways to minimize breakage for existing users, but will also switch our focus to a different distribution, currently TBD.

Steam不会正式支持Ubuntu 19.10及更高版本，也不会推荐给我们的用户。 我们将评估将现有用户的损失降至最低的方法，但还将把重点转移到当前的TBD其他发行版上。

The good news is that your existing Ubuntu installation—whether it’s Ubuntu 19.04 “Disco Dingo” or Ubuntu 18.04 LTS “Bionic Beaver”—will continue running Steam and its Linux games for years to come.

好消息是，您现有的Ubuntu安装(无论是Ubuntu 19.04“ Disco Dingo”还是Ubuntu 18.04 LTS“ Bionic Beaver”)将在未来几年内继续运行Steam及其Linux游戏。

The bad news is that Linux gamers who enjoy Ubuntu will likely have to switch to a different Linux distribution in the future—unless Canonical or Valve change course.

坏消息是，喜欢Canonical或Valve更换路线的，将来喜欢UbuntuLinux游戏玩家可能会不得不切换到其他Linux发行版。
