Description Bradlee Sargent 2009-06-25 01:20:07 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1b4) Gecko/20090426 SUSE/3.5b4-2.1 Firefox/3.5b4

I try to install skype and I get a big error message:
Package
/home/bradlee/Downloads/skype-2.0.0.72-suse.i586.rpm could not be installed.

Details:
Subprocess error: RPM failed: warning:

Header V3 DSA Signature:NOKEY key ID d66b746e

libQtGui.so.4  is needed by skype-2.0.0.72-suse.i586

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to www.skype.com
2. Click on linux
3. Click on opensuse.
4. Click on download...
Actual Results:  
I guess I do not expect it to install because the architecture is wrong.
I have opensuse 11.2 X86-64
and I am attempting to install an i586 program.


Expected Results:  
I am asked to click ok and I do and then yast2 install closes.

That should work fine with a 32-bit program.

I advise to install with zypper:
zypper in skype-2.0.0.72-suse.i586.rpm
That way it will add the needed libraries as well automatically, rpm does not add them on its own.
