I really don't understand why (in terms of number of users) Debian-based wasn't the number 1 priority, let alone why Gentoo was given preference to it.

- benvd 14y agoIt says "Inofficial ebuilds" under the Gentoo section.
- blaenk 14y agoI'm most likely misunderstanding you, but a debian package (though I think geared towards Ubuntu) was the first thing released, in fact a lot of those listed in this wiki page are built _from_ the debian package. http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/
- aw3c2 14y agoThe linked website is nothing official nor are those builds. I have no idea why this is getting upvoted. Move along. Valve actually focused on Ubuntu, logical choice.
- aidenn0 14y agoAll of the packages listed there are unofficial. Your question should be "why did a Gentoo user step up and make a package before a Debian user did" The official package is for Ubuntu.
