Distribution: Ubuntu 18.10, Kernel 4.20.3-042003, NVIDIA drivers: 4.15.27
Opted into Steam client beta?: No
Have you checked for system updates? Yes

I ran steam and got a segfault, the gist link is below along with my pinned libs.

I've tried rebuilding uninstalling, purging, everything.

Of possible importance are these lines:
Gtk-Message: 20:28:26.365: Failed to load module "gail" Gtk-Message: 20:28:26.365: Failed to load module "atk-bridge"
both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of these libraries are installed. I'm unsure why steam can't find them. I'm going to start playing around with nvidia drivers next, however, I can't downgrade the kernel due to a kernel bug that exists in 4.18.

Hello @betam4x, that gtk message is generally harmless. Can you confirm any 32 bit opengl application like glxinfo from mesa-utils:i386 works?

It worked fine until I installed mesa-utils:i386 then I got a segfault with
glxinfo. I forced reinstalled the nvidia drivers and things started
working.

Glad to hear it's working. Closing as this was a system config issue.
