Skype worked fine on 64 bit Mageia 2. I upgraded to Mageia 3, and lost skype. Figured out about enabling 32 bit repositories, did so, then was able to install skype and it again worked. At a slightly later point, I issued urpmi --upgrade-all and it upgraded...many things.
Now, skype is broken again. Message is:
- Code: Select all
/usr/bin/skype: line 2: 9067 Segmentation fault LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so /usr/share/skype/skype
I can give you an strace output if you want.
I'm not offline; skype works fine in most of my virtual machines...at least, those where I've installed it...but I would prefer to run it out of the host if I can. There is something vaguely perverse about running skype out of my Windows 7 Pro virtual machine, when I have a perfectly good linux host available.
