upgrade from lucid fails on removing skype

[Philip Muškovac]

Possibly a dup of bug 923220
The upgrade fails on calculating the dependencies of skype:amd64 as ia32-libs:amd64 has broken depndencies in precise it seems.
Maybe add a rule to install skype:i386 instead?

DEBUG blacklist expr 'skype' matches 'skype'
DEBUG The package 'skype' is marked for removal but it's in the removal blacklist
ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'skype' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.'

Seems to be another error different from that previous report.

Seems like this package is getting in the way:

libv4l-0
