Did update -> dist-upgrade yesterday and lo and behold, skypeforlinux installs!

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. I think so. Here's what I have in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-backports main contrib non-free

Good?
After "apt-get update" I show:

[109] bryan: aptitude versions libdbus-1-3
Package libdbus-1-3:                        
i A 1.8.20-1+devuan1.1                            stable                    500 

Package libdbus-1-3:i386:
i A 1.8.20-1+devuan1.1                            stable                    500 
[110] bryan:

Doesn't seem to be showing anything tagged with "backports", though, even though it "got" all the entries.

Have you tried backports?

Hi,

I'm trying to install the latest skypeforlinux (8.8.76.61628) on Devuan Jessie, with this result.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 skypeforlinux : Depends: libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.8.22) but 1.8.20-1+devuan1.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
-su(root)#

Any ETA for a libdbus update?

Thanks,
