stupid recent problem (chroot related)

[Rafael Rodríguez <rafael.rodriguez.tf@gmail.com>]

Hi,

i've been using skype through a chroot  for months, with an icon in the 
desktop with the associated command:

/usr/bin/dchroot -d "/home/user/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18/skype"

but now it has stopped working:

/usr/bin/dchroot -d "/home/user/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18/skype"
(ia32) /home/user/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18/skype
/home/user/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18/skype: /home/user/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18/skype: 
cannot execute binary file
dchroot: Child exited non-zero.
dchroot: Operation failed.

However:

user@protatil:~/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18$ dchroot
Executing shell in 'ia32' chroot.
(ia32)user@protatil:~/downloads/skype-1.2.0.18$ ./skype

works flawlessly.

any hints?
