          Ok, I found the answer myself.



          First I needed to add multiverse to my /etc/apt/sources.list:



          deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial main universe multiverse
          deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates main universe multiverse
          deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main universe multiverse


          afterwards I added the i386 architecture:



          sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386


          now after an apt-get update I am able to install it.



          sudo apt-get install steamcmd

            Run these commands:



            sudo add-apt-repository multiverse 
            sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
            sudo apt-get update
            sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1 steamcmd

            • I'm not sure what people think is wrong with this post. It's not really the same method as that answer, though it should have the same effect. When running several commands with sudo already, enabling multiverse with add-apt-repository as shown here is handy, as is the link to a blog post with more details (unless some of the info there is wrong, but then I would've expected people to comment about it rather than just downvoting this and voting to delete it). If there's something wrong with this post that I haven't noticed, I hope someone comments.

                          Dealing with this for awhile. Used GUI to download the Steam Client. Once I did that it installed a bunch of missing dependencies. Once I tried sudo apt-get install steamcmd again it worked flawlessly.
