Public bug reported:

Skype 4.0.0.8 is  32bit qt application.
Input method should be done with qt-immodule, ibus-qt and arbitrary ibus input 
method engine.
It works well with 32bit(i386) environment but there is a issue in
64bit, amd64 environment.

ibus-qt4 is not multi-arch supported. There cannot co-exist libibus-qt1 :amd64, 
i386. so I cannot install libibus-qt1:i386.
It make Skype cannot connect with ibus input method engine in amd64 environment.

In 12.04, dependent icu48 also don't support multi-arch, but it support
m-a in 12.10.


An attachment is a patch for ibut-qt4 to suport m-a and co-installable 
i386/amd64 libraries.

I can use input-method in Skype 4.0.0.8 on amd64 environment with this
patch and libicu48:i386/amd64  from 12.10.

** Affects: ibus-qt (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Patch added: "m-a support of ibus-qt4"
