There is no 64bit version of Skype.
The Ubuntu one is a fake 64bit package btw, all it contains is the same
lousy i586 binary, that's why we need the 32bit version of the libs.
The RPM from Russianfedora differs from the official one, it actually
installs a statically linked binary which seems more stable.
