32bit software unter 64 bit system

[cruxx]

i just install skype on my system (amd64/ubuntu5.10) as followes:

1. install the debian package:

* download the debian package for from http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-deb
* force the installation (we are brave, aren't we?):
sudo dpk -i --force-all ./skype_1.2.0.18-1_i386.deb

2. install the i386 version of the libqt3-mt library:

* download the libqt3-mt package for i386 from http://packages.ubuntu.com/
* force the installation (we are brave, aren't we?):
sudo dpk -i --force-all ./libqt3-mt_3.3.4-8ubuntu5_i386.deb

3. check if skype is missing anything else:

ldd /usr/bin/skype

4. start skype by typing skype into a console
5. go, have an old fashioned...

don't know if it runs stable. didn't test it intesively yet...

... aaalsoo wie ich das jetzt verstanden habe müssen die benötigten bibliotheken gleich kompiliert sein ( also 32 bit bibliothek zu 32 bit software und umgekehrt)

liege ich da richtig?
