If anyone is using Skype 2 in F8 be aware that the rpm method of installing
Skype 2 will fail -
See:
[root at home1 skype-2.0.0.13]# rpm -ivh skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586.rpm
warning: skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY,
key ID d66b746e
error: Failed dependencies:
libQtCore.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586
libQtDBus.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586
libQtGui.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586
libQtNetwork.so.4 is needed by skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586
qt4-x11 >= 4.2 is needed by skype-2.0.0.13-fc5.i586
But - then:
[root at home1 skype-2.0.0.13]# yum list available |grep libQt
[root at home1 skype-2.0.0.13]#
So none of these necessary dependency rpms is available in f8!
On the other hand the static tarball will unpack and run in F8.
