I've looked all over the place for a solution but no one seems to be getting the same error codes as me. When I try to run Steam through terminal I get the following error:

I've tried sudo apt-get purge and terminal tries to tell me I don't have Steam installed. I've tried reinstalling with software center but that doesn't help either.
