Bug#835584: steam browser renders nothing without libxss1:i386

Package: steam
Version: 1.0.0.52-4
Severity: important

The steam browser (and hence the "Steam News" Popup at start) don't display
anything.
Looking at .steam/error.log, there are several lines pointing to a missing
libXss:

~/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steamwebhelper: error while loading shared libraries:
libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

After installing libxss1:i386 manually the browser works again.

So I suggest adding libxss1:i386 to the steam dependencies.
