Package: ia32-apt-get<br>Version: 22<br>Severity: grave<br><br>I cannot install skype via ia32-apt-get. The line in my sources.list is:<br><br>deb [arch=i386] <a href="http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/">http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/</a> stable non-free<br>
<br>and I ran /usr/share/ia32-apt-get/convert-all-sources.list<br><br>But ia32-apt-get behaves as though it were ignoring the flag [arch=i386], because although "ia32-apt-get update" does not complain about skype's repository, "ia32-apt-get install skype" cannot download the package.<br>
<br>I solved the issue by downloading the .deb from skype's site, and<br><br># ia32-dpkg -i skype-debian_2.0.0.72-1_i386.deb<br># ia32-apt-get -f install<br><br>Thank you,<br><br>David<br><br>-- System Information:<br>
