Skype won't install in Suse 10.3

Sandie · 12-23-2007, 05:15 PM

I recently downloaded skype v 1.4.0.118. rpm. It will open in yast. Then yast reads the rpm file, but then it stops dead and closes. I also just reinstalled/updated;
libqt4
libqt4-x11
libqt4-dbus-1
libsigc++2
So I'm apparently still missing something. Any thoughts?
Thanks Sandie

Any error message? What do you get from testing installation with rpm from the command line?

Code:

rpm -v --test -Uvh skype-1.4.0.118-suse.i586.rpm

SKYPE 1.4-.. was installed without errors messages but I can't hear my voice from the test machine! How to overcome this problem, please? I'm living on SuSe 10.3
