i have also noticed this issue, looks like a fix is on the way
Uninstalled it because I prefer to update via no GUI and was the most convenient to do for pulling the distro upgrade. People from reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/1d7sdgt/tw_update_to_20240531_i_unistalled_steam_whats/) suggest installing it choosing the break option, although it does not sounds like an optimal solution its the way for the moment, willing to know more about the upcoming patch. Problem: 1: nothing provides 'glibc-locale-base-32bit' needed by the to be installed steam-1.0.0.79-1.4.x86_64 Solution 1: do not install steam-1.0.0.79-1.4.x86_64 Solution 2: break steam-1.0.0.79-1.4.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c/d/?] (c):2

For those of you stuck without steam because because of the missing glibc-locale-base-32bit dependency, you can try side-loading the package from here https://software.opensuse.org/package/glibc-locale-base-32bit?locale=en. I already have an older version of glibc-locale-base-32bit installed, so I haven't tried it myself. Also, has anyone tried using Steam without glibc-locale-base-32bit? Are there any bugs/does everything work as expected? I'm personally just staying on an older version for now.
I'm afraid it doesn't work for me. my system details: Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240531 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 Kernel Version: 6.9.3-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 2 × AMD A9-9420e RADEON R5, 5 COMPUTE CORES 2C+3G Memory: 7.2 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon R5 Graphics Manufacturer: Acer Product Name: Aspire A315-21G System Version: V1.12
The last update fixed the dependency issue
