Skype on debian amd64

Due to my imminent relocation, i was trying to use skype_static-2.1.0.47.tar.bz2 on my laptop (debian amd64 testing), but it used to crash with this message:


Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 643: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!


After a couple of unsuccessful tries, i downloaded the previous version: skype-debian_2.0.0.72-1_i386.deb , installed its dependencies ( i was missing two packages related to qt4)


erakis:~# apt-get install libqt4-core libqt4-gui
[..]
erakis:~# dpkg --force-architecture -i skype-debian_2.0.0.72-1_i386.deb


And now it works!
