Public bug reported: If you try to uninstall Steam using Ubuntu Software, only the steam- installer metapackage is removed, not the actual steam package. This issue is caused by GNOME Software that unfortunately does not support uninstallation of unneeded dependencies. It would be great if this issue could be somehow workarounded.
