Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I am trying to install steam on Fedora 40 KDE. I was having issues with getting system updates to go through so I removed steam and some conflicting i686 packages. My system is now fully up to date but steam will not install due to the same conflicts.

➜  ~ sudo dnf install steam

Hello @patrickhousley, this issue needs to be evaluated and resolved by your distro's package maintainers and this is not something Valve has control to resolve.

It looks like the x86_64 and i686 variants of libstdc++ and gstreamer1 didn't have exactly the same version when did your system update cycle.

Report this issue to your distro's package maintainer for those packages.
