11 It seems the new version of skype depends on Qt4 while you propably have
12 installed Qt3. One *can* install both versions, but it's a bit tricky to make
13 Qt3-dependent packages (like KDE 3.x) compile correctly when both versions
14 are present. I think there is a tutorial or just a post to the forums about
15 it.
