Skype requires 32 bit [ just in case you are building a 64 bit system. ] They don't give any information about the software requirements other than QT. It looks like skype isn't finding the library path, if you used a different path then you'll need to create a symlink to the librarys for skype. [ yes, they are a MS based company, they hard code include paths rather than use enviroment variables. ] -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
