Steam for Linux

Steam does not start, after installation, I encountered two problems
Steam does not start, after installation, I ran into two problems.
I'm new to linux systems my first 3-5 days with this system.
After a clean install of Void Linux, updating all the Nvidia drivers tried to install Steam

The first problem came up:
you are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and steam may not run: libc.so.6 void linux

tried to install (nvidia-libs-32bit probably thought it was missing) and then installed + (libgcc-32bit libstdc++-32bit libdrm-32bit libglvnd-32bit according to Void Linux documentation)

but as it happens in the classics, now I can’t run it at all, in the terminal it gives out such lines

$steam
/home/artspace/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 124: VERSION_ID: variable bounds not set
/home/artspace/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 124: VERSION_ID: variable bounds not set
steam.sh[6492]: Running Steam on void 64-bit
/home/artspace/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 124: VERSION_ID: variable bounds not set
steam.sh[6492]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
setup.sh[6565]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!
steam.sh[6492]: Can't find 'steam-runtime-check-requirements', continuing anyway

who faced a similar problem, how can I solve this problem?
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but the problem remained the same.

Problem solved, here is the solution:
void linux
xbps-install -Syv libgcc-32bit libstdc++-32bit libdrm-32bit libglvnd-32bit mesa-dri-32bit
xbps-install -S nvidia-libs-32bit

after that, steam started, I think if anyone encounters this problem, he will find this post :) it turned out to solve the issue on his own
