STORY: skype wasn't working properly, so i removed it to install it again.
sudo apt-get remove skype
sudo apt-get autoremove
PROBLEM: when i
sudo apt-get install skype
it gives an broken packages error. I want to fix it with synaptics package manager but when i click: fix broken packages, it returns an error.
QUESTION: what do I do now? I desperately need skype.
WHAT I TRIED SO FAR:
sudo apt-get purge skype
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoremove
I have also tried downloading from the website, it gives an error while installing: cannot install libqt4-dbus:i386
When I try to install it from the commandline, it says: missing dependencies: skype-bin
when I try
sudo apt-get install skype-bin
it says missing dependencies: libqt4-dbus:i386 and a whole lot of other packages. When I try to install one of those packages it misses some other packages. What do i have to do? Thanks in advance,
Sorry, I cannot paste output in here. I needed Skype for my work and it was not working for a couple of days so I was forced to completely remove Ubuntu. I only run windows at the moment but will install Kubuntu very soon. Thanks for all the help.
dpkg -l | grep skypesudo apt-get purge skype-bin
