Package: steam
Version: 1.0.0.49-1
Severity: important

Hello,

I purge the steam package to try to fix an issue and now I can't install it
back.
It fails everytime with this error:
Note: selecting "steam:i386" instead of the
      virtual package "steam"
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  steam:i386

And of course it does not ask me to accept or decline the license agreement.
