Even though Skype isn't in the Ubuntu repos, all of its dependencies
are, except on AMD64. Skype is a 32-bit application which requires
32-bit libraries; Skype does run well on the i386 version of Ubuntu.
Its doesn't run on the AMD64 version because a dependency,
libsigc++-2.0-0c2a, is missing from the ia32-libs package. On both i386
and AMD64 this dependency can be found in main, but on AMD64 the version
in main is only 64-bit. Adding this dependency to the ia32-libs package
will allow Skype to run on AMD64.
** Changed in: ia32-libs (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => New
