  Are you actually using a standard Debian installation with the
standard versions of dpkg, apt and so on?  On my system I can't install
anything for other architectures (and rightly so!):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg -i /tmp/bld_0.3.2-3_powerpc.deb 
Password:
dpkg: error processing /tmp/bld_0.3.2-3_powerpc.deb (--install):
 package architecture (powerpc) does not match system (i386)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /tmp/bld_0.3.2-3_powerpc.deb

  Does "apt-cache show skype" show you anything?  If not, aptitude can't
know about skype and I'll reassign this to apt.  If it does, what does
"aptitude show skype" say?

  Daniel
