skype Installation.


I am trying to install skype on my Debain lenny 5.03. But unable to install it. Please let me how would I do this. I have add this repo entry in source.list
Code:
"deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free"
and when I try apt-get install skype it says

Code:
nx-farooq:/home/farooq/Desktop/Downloads# apt-get install skype
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
skype is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  skype: Depends: libqt4-dbus (>= 4.4.3) but it is not installable
         Depends: libqt4-network (>= 4.4.3) but it is not installable
         Depends: libqtcore4 (>= 4.4.3) but it is not installable
         Depends: libqtgui4 (>= 4.4.3) but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
Please help me
