Preview: skype on KDE 64
i had skype working fine after typing in some terminal commands from here (http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/lat ... d-p/104494) but now it wont open again and when i type in the terminal commands again it says "E: Unable to locate package libxss1:i386" i just don't know what I am doing :(

This is what I did:

If you run skype (AMD64) from terminal and get the following error:
skype: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Get a list with dependencies that are not met:
ldd /usr/bin/skype

libXss.so.1 => not found
libQtDBus.so.4 => not found
libQtGui.so.4 => not found
libQtNetwork.so.4 => not found
libQtCore.so.4 => not found

Results in:
sudo apt-get install libxss1:i386 libqt4-dbus:i386 libqtgui4:i386
