Bug 177719 – net-im/skype-1.4.0.58_alpha requires 32bit version of dev-libs/libsigc

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 179568
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Luigi 'Comio' Mantellini 2007-05-08 20:55:50 UTC]

skype 1.4.0.58_alpha (static linked) requires a 32bit version of the library libsigc.so.

I have this error:

/opt/skype/skype: error while loading shared libraries: libsigc-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


(I have already the 64bit version of libsigc++ libs).

ciao

luigi

Reproducible: Always

Amd64 team: Any idea if it would be possible to provide this in one of he emul-packages ?

Some time ago I ripped that lib from the fedora core 5 package:
