I'm having trouble installing skype. I'm having the same issues as detailed in this thread;
Installing skype will not work - skype-bin not installable, and 'held broken packages'
and I am having trouble with this part:
"sudo vi /etc/apt/preferences
and insert the following lines:
Package: *
Pin: release a=quantal*
Pin-Priority: 2012
enter :wq to write the file. Pin-Priority must be greater than 1000."
What exactly does "enter :wq" mean? I've tried this numerous times and nothing happens. When I tried to create the file again, it says it may already exist or to delete "etc/apt/preferences.swp" before continuing, but I tried to delete it and it says it can't find it.
Also, when I created the preferences file, it said 'E353 Nothing in register' (it was highlighted in red). Is this standard?
I could use some help if anybody knows anything. Thanks.
