The instructions on this page are not complete. I am not using epro flavor or mix-ins, in a rather minimal installation with Openbox on X.org so maybe this is why it's not working for me, but there appears to be things missing.

I do have x11-libs/libxcb installed, with xkb USE flag, and nothing else (32 and 64 bit). I don't see what the problem is.
After these two additional steps, Steam is working.

This is a pretty important package. Why not open a bug for integrating it into Funtoo? There is no reason to force people to use layman.

Steam doesn't run from these instructions

The instructions on this page do not appear to be complete.

First of all, /usr/games/bin/steam cannot be run by root, but my user doesn't have permissions to run it either. After running

   chmod 777 /usr/games/bin/steam

I can run it, and accept a license agreement. After that, I also needed to remove the following files:

~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu..../libxcb* (1 file, 1 symbolic link to that file)

After these two additional steps, Steam is working.
