I saw this comment, too. I don't believe it makes any difference. The 64-bit package skype in the partner repository already depends on skype-bin:i386. This means that we are already using the i386 version of Skype and its libraries.
Also, the user says it works for him on 32-bit versions of Ubuntu, not 64-bit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical Partner Developers, which is subscribed to skype in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980320 Title: Skype silently crashes on Ubuntu 64bits To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/980320/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
