Issue reproduced on Mint Petra - Steam uses precise although saucy should have been used.

Removing the Steam repo resolves this issue.
Is that still a problem? We had a few issues with the server a few days ago.
The issue is resolved. At least for my setup.
Thanks!
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 about 1 month ago and I have recently started to experience this problem too. When I run sudo apt-get update in the terminal it gets stuck with the message 100% [Waiting for headers].
However, apt-get update works fine if I comment out the following line in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/steam.list:
deb http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ precise steam
Should it say precise, even though I'm running trusty?
Dunno if these options are different, but I can't remember if I installed Steam via the Ubuntu Software Center or if I installed the .deb from Steam's website.
http://repo.steampowered.com was having problems over the weekend, should be fixed now.
same problem i have ubuntu 14.04 apt-get update hang at 99% it works without steam repo
even http://repo.steampowered.com/steam in browser returns error
I have the same problem for about one week. with ubuntu 14.04.1
I had to temporarily deactivate the steam-repo.
What is wrong with http://repo.steampowered.com?
Running 14.04.3 on a fresh install and I have this issue.
Every time I launch steam I am pestered to install some i386 libraries for Mesa. It never finds them. I thought the repo should have a directory listing... Is this correct?
http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/dists/precise/steam/binary-amd64/Packages
Nothing extracted yet.
The repository steam uses on thrusty is a precise repository.
An other problem I encountered with this is when doing a "sudo apt-get update" It keeps hanging at 100%.
Removing the steam ppa from "software sources" in "settings" solved this problem.
