Description Christian B. 2007-10-07 17:52:33 UTC

Emerging Skype 1.4.0.118 shows an error as follows:
install: Aufruf von stat für „/var/tmp/portage/net-im/skype-1.4.0.118/work/libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0“ nicht möglich: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
(in English: file not found)

In /opt/skype/ there's a broken link (libsigc-2.0.so.0 -> libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0) because libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0 is missing. Starting skype results in an error because the file is missing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge Skype 1.4.0.118 on AMD64 architecture
2. start Skype (optional with strace)

Actual Results:  
Starting Skype results in "/opt/skype/skype: error while loading shared libraries: libsigc-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64"

Expected Results:  
Skype should start up normally or fail emerging the version if libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0 is missing.

strace output -> http://pastebin.com/f700ffef5

I backed up the file from Skype 1.4.0.99 and copied it to the new version. Doing this it works perfectly.
