Skype in UBUNTU64 needs emul-linux-x86-qtlibs?

Asked by alfredo

I want to run Skype in UBUNTU 64. When I tried I got an error message that suggested that the 64 version was not compatible. I searched and found that someone got Skype to run in Linux 64 installing "emul-linux-x86-qtlibs". I am new to UBUNTU. Did not have problem with 32 bit version. Do not know where to get emul-linux-x86-qtlibs or even if this applies to UBUNTU. Probably quite a few naive users will appreciate some good advice on this subject.
