cannot install skype on Ubuntu 6.06LTS

Install all dependencies and install skype again!

sudo apt-get install libasound2 libc6 libgcc1 libqt4-core libqt4-gui libstdc++6

Please reopen the bug if you still having problems!!

Thanks for your report!!

The result is still broken packages. Here is the output [I think I may have installed the dependencies previously]:

sudo apt-get install libasound2 libc6 libgcc1 libqt4-core libqt4-gui libstdc++6

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
