Description Gordon Wells 2007-10-10 09:24:16 UTC 
skype 1.4.0.118 gives the following when trying to run:

/opt/skype/skype: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib32/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Load_Sfnt_Table

Fixed by reverting back to 1.4.0.99



Reproducible: Always

I seriously don't see what fix are you expecting from us; report this upstream.

Sorry about that, it wasn't exactly clear whether the problem was with skype or it's dependencies (freetype, emul-linux??)
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-10-10 10:53:06 UTC 
Running readelf -s on the libs provided by app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs (fontconfig/freetype), there's not any problem with those wrt FT_Load_Sfnt_Table. 

Check `ldd /usr/lib32/libfontconfig.so.1` output and make sure it doesn't pick up a broken libfreetype from somewhere else that /usr/lib32, same thing for /opt/skype/skype. Other than that, sorry.
