[Solved] Problem while running steam

I've installed steam on my computer and when I want to run it, it gives me this output and doesn't run:

➜  ~ steam

Re: [Solved] Problem while running steam

You likely haven't installed the lib32 variant of your opengl drivers. If you think you have, post

pacman -Qs libgl

and information on your graphics card.

You likely haven't installed the lib32 variant of your opengl drivers. If you think you have, post

pacman -Qs libgl

and information on your graphics card.

output of pacman -Qs libgl:

➜  ~ pacman -Qs libgl
local/lib32-libglvnd 1.1.0-1
    The GL Vendor-Neutral Dispatch library
local/lib32-mesa 18.2.1-1
    An open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification (32-bit)
local/libglade 2.6.4-6
    Allows you to load glade interface files in a program at runtime
local/libglvnd 1.1.0-1
    The GL Vendor-Neutral Dispatch library
local/mesa 18.2.1-1
    An open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification
local/nvidia-390xx-utils 390.87-1
    NVIDIA drivers utilities

my graphics card is a nvidia gt 730 and as you can see in the upper output, I'm using nvidia proprietary driver to using my card.
