Dear Maintainer(s),

It will be great if Debian will add steamos-compositor (http://
repo.steamstatic.com/steamos/pool/main/s/steamos-compositor/).

Steamos-compositor comes with a xsession script, its own compositor which 
makes the steam layer actually work (kde & gnome ones have quite a few 
problems).

It seems the package just works, you probably just need to recompile it and 
push it to debian repos. I've manually installed it from http://
repo.steamstatic.com/steamos/pool/main/s/steamos-compositor/steamos-
compositor_1.34+bsos1_amd64.deb, with no dependencies problem (I'm using 
debian SID), and I could login, using sddm, into the new SteamOS xsession. 
Steam started in bigpicture mode and everything just worked: games, streaming 
and the steam overly ;-) !

Yours,
BogDan.
