Re: Skype after ia32-libs update?
Thank you. I followed your steps, even after deleting /etc/ia32-apt and reinstalling ia32-apt-get (as the former directory did not update its sources.list's). But I am afraid that it does not work yet: # apt-get update [...] W: Failed to fetch http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/dists/stable/non-free/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. # apt-get install skype Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package skype is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package skype has no installation candidate I am using the latest versions of all the packages. Should I file a bug report? Thank you, David Please Cc to me if replying
Re: Skype after ia32-libs update?
Doesn't look like a bug to me. More likely a pbkac. The web site's error is clear: 404 page not found. This usually indicates that the looked for page could not be found (what a surprise!). Possibly your apt-get configuration file is wrong, or possibly that the page is actually gone from Skype's website. On 6 Jul, 2009, at 15:27, David wrote: Thank you.

You need to call ia32-apt-get or ia32-aptitude instead. See NEWS file in the package. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
