That's not a bug, Steam requires 32-bit libraries, so the 32-bit mirrors must be enabled to install it.

On the other hand it only supports 64-bit systems, so the package can't be made ExclusiveArch: i586, as it the client will refuse to start on a native i586 system. As such it's ExclusiveArch: x86_64, but with i586 dependencies.

It's nothing that we can fix, but feel free to tell upstream that you'd like to have a 64-bit Steam client :)

Resolution: (none) => INVALID
Status: NEW => RESOLVED

Can you add a message saying that the 32-bit repositories must be avalaible?
For Wine 64, there is a message that wine 32 is needed to run 32 bit app when selecting the package, could it be similar?
