32bit compatibility gone, no steam

Hi there! I am enjoying a freshly installed 15.0 Slackware machine, but found a problem

After installing, I went into my usual routine of installing sbopkg, slackpg+ and enabling multilib.

Then installed steam, and worked with no issues.

Today I updated, and found the following error while launching steam: "Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: glibc.so.6"

Did a slackpg search glibc glibc-solib, and got this:

[inst] patches : glibc-zoneinfo-2024a-noarch-1_slack15.0
[mask] slackware64 : glibc-zoneinfo-2021e-noarch-1

(note, no multilib here)

Checked my slackpkgplus.conf and I think I got everything I need:

ALLOW32BIT=off

REPOPLUS=( multilib slackpkgplus alienbob restricted )

# Slackware 15.0 - x86_64
MIRRORPLUS['multilib']=https://slackware.nl/people/alien/multilib/15.0/
MIRRORPLUS['alienbob']=https://slackware.nl/people/alien/sbrepos/15.0/x86_64
MIRRORPLUS['restricted']=https://slackware.nl/people/alien/restricted_sbrepos/15.0/x86_64

Am I missing something?

I know about Lutris, which would be my main option in other Linux machines, however I saw it depends on Webkit-GTK, and I have PTSD of 28+ hours compiling time on a previous machine, so that thing won't touch my computer again :D
