[Bug 271459] [NEW] Skype fails loading object file

[Matthew Momjian]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libqt4-dbus

I am using Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10a5 x64 Desktop edition.  Skype (latest
Medibuntu version) stopped working today; it was working fine yesterday,
and I think i downloaded an update that borked it out.  Here's the error

matthew at POGO:/$ skype
skype: error while loading shared libraries: libQtDBus.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
matthew at POGO:/$ 

I used getlibs;

matthew at POGO:/$ getlibs /usr/bin/skype
libQtDBus.so.4: libqt4-core
libQtGui.so.4: libqt4-gui
libQtNetwork.so.4: libqt4-core
libQtCore.so.4: libqt4-core
The following i386 packages will be installed:
libqt4-core
libqt4-gui
Continue [Y/n]? y

And still get the error:

matthew at POGO:/$ skype
skype: error while loading shared libraries: libQtDBus.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
