Re: Skype package problem
Well I was never able to install skype from the software-center.
But you can download the package from skype web site and install it.
It worked for me.

[sudo] password for ricky:

skype is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
skype : Depends: ia32-libs but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
This is what I get?

Does this mean anything bad? "E: Unable to locate package skype";
After that, I tried to reinstall using the package I got from the website;
error message in software centre:
Code:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
skype: Depends: lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.1.1-21) but 4.7.2-2ubuntu1 is installed
Depends: ia32-libs but it is not installed
