Dependency issue to install skype
Hello list,
This is a debian multiarch box. IF I try to install skype 4.2 I get the following error
`````````
#dpkg -i skype-debian_4.2.0.11-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 216028 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace skype 4.0.0.8-1 (using skype-debian_4.2.0.11-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement skype ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of skype:
skype depends on libqtwebkit4 (>= 2.1.0~2011week13).
dpkg: error processing skype (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

`````````
Tried with "apt-get install -f" and it removed the skype but not solves the issue.
Also tried with this
#apt-get install libqtwebkit4
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libqtwebkit4 is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
skype:i386 : Depends: libqtwebkit4:i386 (>= 2.1.0~2011week13) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
Any alternative to install skype 4.2 ?
Also tried to install 4.0 bit lib32 is missing and it is also missing from repo !!!
What can I do ?
Please suggest
