openSuse 11.4 64bit and Skype 2.2.0.25: Cannot mix incompatible Qt library

English Applications
1

On Opensuse 11.4 64bit, on a Dell E6410 notebook.

Installed the 32bit dependencies from SDB: Skype (SDB:Skype - openSUSE )

i.e. su -c ‘zypper install libasound2-32bit xorg-x11-libXv-32bit xorg-x11-libs-32bit libqt4-x11-32bit libpng12-0-32bit’

Then installed the latest version (2.2.0.25 from Skype website for openSuse 11+

And when launching skype in a terminal window I get
“Fatal: Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x40702) with this library (version 0x40701) Aborted”

And this corresponds tot requireing an older QT library for Skype than is the current version from openSuse 11.4

How do I fix this?? I’ve already pursued all other solutions I could find.

thanks

i’m using 11.4 with KDE 4.6.2 (from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/) and got
qt4 ver. 1.7.2 from that repo. OSS comes with 1.7.1.

but there isn’t much difference between this latest version of skype and
the previous one – in my experience. perhaps with faster broadband (most
are) and better video equipment (ditto) there would be better video &
audio, as skype claims. haven’t heard or read anything about that.

i’m pretty sure the previous version of skype did not demand that qt4
version.
