Skype 1.4.0.64_alpha requires /usr/lib32/libdbus-1.so.2. My machine has the libdbus-1.so.3 instead. workaround: ln -s /usr/lib32/libdbus-1.so.{3,2} bye Reproducible: Always
Shrug; tell upstream to use less obsolete dbus. (This is p.masked now anyway).
Fixed, thanks

Uh; remove this. This can just breaks loads of stuff because the ABIs are plain not compatible. None of our business to work around upstream crap for package.masked stuff.

The ABI is enough compatible to make skype works. The symlink hack is locally in /opt/skype, it does not affect other packages.
It seems that upstream changed the dbus dependency for skype 1.4.0.74_beta. I tried it without the ugly hack and it works. Please confirm.

(In reply to comment #8) > libQtDBus.so.4 => not found > So i simply don't see any libdbus dependencies anymore. THIS bug may be gone > with the new release. (Other bugs may have come) There are not for static versions; the dynamic one appears to need qt w/ USE=dbus as shown above.
