Did you do sudo apt-get update before you ran the install?

$> cd /pub

I've just done a check on my system which is 64 bit 13.04
andCode:apt-rdepends skype Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done skype Depends: skype-bin skype-bin
And attached pic of skype running. All I did was install skype from synaptic. Which pulls in skype-bin:i386Code:apt-cache policy ia32-libs ia32-libs: Installed: (none) Candidate: 20090808ubuntu36 Version table: 20090808ubuntu36 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring/universe amd64 Packages

Try doing an "sudo apt-get update" first. If that doesn't work, then try changing the mirror in Software Sources to another location, then "sudo apt-get update" again. I was having the same problem and it solved it for me.
Yes I did
What does it means change the mirror?
I've got this:
jovan@jovan-HP-ProBook-4540s:~$ apt-rdepends skype
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
W: Unable to locate package skype
skype
jovan@jovan-HP-ProBook-4540s:~$

@philinux
Thanks for the info, I've changed the mirror, try to download missing libs, reinstall and install different tools to build unmet dependencies, etc. and ended with complete system re-installation, since I fuc... somehow during the process of getting skype, , so I had to do it. Now I'm awaiting fro someone to solve this issue, or simply stop using skype with this computer...
Try downloading and installing Skype from the official website. Then you don't need to deal with repositories or even the terminal at all. Choose 12.04 (I have 13.04 and the 12.04 works on mine; there is no 13.04 version) and when it gives you the option to save or open, open with GDebi Package Installer (or a equivalent).
If you already have Skype installed but not working, make sure to remove the existing installation first withCode:sudo apt-get remove --purge skype
