Bug#903869: steam: Some games not open because of locales

[Vinicius Couto]

Package: steam
Version: 1.0.0.54-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to open some games, but automatcaly closes. No warning or errors appeared.
After some different ways trying to open, i found that the Debian only load the language locale that the installation ask (only pt_BR.UTF-8, in my case).
I needed to include the en_US.UTF-8 locale to run properly the games.
I suggest that the steam package or client warn the needed locale.
