Comment 3 for bug 292899

it look like can't work on x86_64 system.
I just use skype for 32 version. because I can't find anywhere can download
the skype for linux amd 64 version.

when I use this:
export
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/
>
> libv4lconvert.so:/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so"

skype,

said:
 ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/libv4lconvert.so' from LD_PRELOAD
cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so' from LD_PRELOAD
cannot be preloaded: ignored.
