I am trying to get steam up and running. I enabled multilib in pacman.conf and installed the steam and steam-native-runtime packages. When I run steam, I get the following:
***************************************************
The recommended way to run steamcmd is: steamcmd.sh
***************************************************
/home/camdenmil/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 36: /home/camdenmil/.local/share/Steam/steamcmd.sh: No such file or directory
This seems to imply that I'm installing steamcmd rather than steam even though I did not install steamcmd. Am I missing a package?

How are you starting steam?
Also, what is at line 36 of steam.sh?

I'm just running 'steam' from the console. Line 36 in ~/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh is:
exec "$STEAMROOT/steamcmd.sh" "$@"
I've tried installing the tarball directly with the same results. After deleting ~/.local/share/Steam, I get a popup window with "Reinstall" and "cancel" buttons and either button re-creates ~./local/share/Steam and throws the same error. I have gotten the same results even after reinstalling steam and all its dependencies after deleting pacman's cache.
A friend fresh-installed steam and we found that my /usr/bin/steam and /usr/lib/steam are identical to his but ~/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh is different.

Figured it out. I pulled my .bashrc from a server where I run steamcmd and that bashrc was setting STEAMEXE=steamcmd. Oversight on my part.
