What I'm trying to say is that ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk probably 
contain all of those libraries.

If you want to keep your system light you should probably install the 
real 32-bit skype (not the pseudo-amd64 one), because that package will 
depend only on the 32-bit libraries it really needs.

Kind regards,
