gnome-base/gconf is listed as one of the required packages in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Steam, is that still the case?
I do not know. Probably a better question for someone who maintains the steam stuff, like chewi@? I see quite a few outdated references to packages that have been removed, so it doesn't make me super confident in that page (e.g. dev-util/pkgconfig, x11-proto/*)
Ah, I just discovered https://github.com/anyc/steam-overlay/commit/6c692163aaa1a2e68742078c86d88e6be58b0ba4 > It's been masked on gentoo, and according to Arch bug report FS#60036 > it's not needed to run the Steam client. > > I'm not sure if there are any games that require it, but I assume it > would be safe to drop it since steam-native-runtime on Arch dropped it in 2018.
Thanks Matt for looking into this!
