Skype is a neat tool, but the RPM that they ship is crap as it does not
properly list its dependencies. Instead you will need to try to start it,
figure out what package the missing file is from
(libpng12-0-32bit-1.2.44-2.1 in your case), and then rinse and repeat
until all dependencies are met. Complain to Skype about their RPM to help
with this in the future. Most applications properly list dependencies and
so an install is literally as simple as sudo zypper in ./skype.rpm but
until they fix that it’ll be painful as you’re experiencing. If you’re
using 64-bit OpenSUSE make sure you are adding the 32-bit versions of the
packages you add since Skype is 32-bit only.
For review, here are the RPMs I installed sometime shortly after Skype,
though some of them may have been related to other things installed at the
same time:
libpng12-0-32bit-1.2.44-2.1
libqt4-qt3support-32bit-4.6.3-2.1.1
libqt4-x11-32bit-4.6.3-2.1.1
libqt4-sql-sqlite-32bit-4.6.3-2.1.1
Mesa-32bit-7.8.2-1.3
libmng-32bit-1.0.10-97.1
libqt4-sql-mysql-32bit-4.6.3-1.3
libqt4-sql-32bit-4.6.3-2.1.1
libdrm-32bit-2.4.21-1.2
liblcms1-32bit-1.18a-8.1
libmysqlclient_r16-32bit-5.1.46-2.18
libqt4-32bit-4.6.3-2.1.1
xorg-x11-libXv-32bit-7.5-1.8
Good luck.
