Here's what I'm told when I try......maybe you have any idea what it means, I think it's because of broken dependencies....
I attempted to install skype both using Gdebi with the .deb skype package.
which gave me this error:
Also, tried it this way:
http://2c2bn.wordpress.com/2013/10/0...on-kali-linux/ by using
apt-get update
root@groundzero:~# wget -O skype-install.deb http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-deb
root@groundzero:~# dpkg -i skype-install.deb
It says I was supposed to try apt-get -f install to fix the dependencies, but that does this:
root@kali:~# apt-get -f install

THEN FINALLY ONCE I FIGURED EVERYTHIGN WAS INSTALLED BECAUSE I SAW THE OPTION TO OPEN SKYPE IN THE START MENU......I TRIED IT THROUGH TERMINAL AS WELL:
root@kali:~# skype
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 661: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!
By the way
I get this when I try apt-get -f install
