Does this mean Skype will no longer be available in this platform?
No. There hasn't been a proposal to remove 32 bit support from the 64
bit release. The proposal, which is still hypothetical, would be to
make the 32 bit platform (the release with a 32 bit kernel, and all
i686 packages) to a secondary release from its current status as a
primary. Like other secondary archs, it would still be available. The
change would primarily reflect the reality that the 32 bit release is
mostly still available because it works, and not because there are
people actively working on it.
OK, here's where I stand. I've been using the 64-bit release for four
years now. That includes a 64-bit kernel. But I have one or two 32-bit
applications, that need 32-bit libraries. I would like to know these
would still be available--until such time as the worthies who developed
the Skype client, develop a better 64-bit client than they currently
have developed.
