[Bug 854839] Re: Skype deb i386 fails to install on Oneiric 64bit

 

The new python-apt in precise fixes the issue, I tested it with the
latest 32bit skype and it did a correct dependency resolution in ht
multiarch scenario.

Title:
  Skype deb i386 fails to install on Oneiric 64bit

Status in “python-apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The 64 bit skype pkg from skype.com is a i386 pkg which uses
  ia32-libs, in Oneirc one needs to use the skype32 bit pkg.

  After downloading it from skype, and double clicking on it brings up software center to install.
  On a 64 bit system software center says that its:

  Wong architecture 'i386' and presents an "Install" button.

  Clicking the button does nothing

  With the new multiarch capabilities in Oneiric is should install and
  run.
