Changing mirrors didn't do anything for me, but the forum thread Arup
linked to had the fix for me. After doing:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
I was finally able to install skype with:
sudo apt-get install skype
So it looks like even though I got the same error message my problem was
different. This was on a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 x64 using Wubi
and I didn't do anything other than adding the Canonical Partners
repository before trying to install Skype.
