Re: 32 bit pkg on amd64



Sad part is that according to Skype they are "preparing" 64bit package
for almost 2 years.

I too am using this same package, however this same 64bit package
seems to a lot of 32 bit deps:
ia32-libs (>= 2.4), ia32-libs-gtk (>= 2.2), lib32asound2 (> 1.0.16),
lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.1.1), libc6-i386 (>= 2.7-1)

My Skype seems to be working fine, except I can't change or see my or
anyone else's avatar, as it seems this is due to one of the libqt's
that handles images. Apparently everything works fine if you build it
using Dynamic Static Static OSS.
