Hi,

I think you have some media not correctly configured in your urpmi base.

What is the output of the following command:

urpmq --list-media active



As get-skype is a 32bit package you must have media 32 activate too, if your are using Mageia x86_64.

Comment 2 Colonel Fouks 2016-03-14 09:15:12 CET

It seems like I have 32bit activated:

$ urpmq --list-media active
Core Release
Core Updates
Nonfree Release
Nonfree Updates
Core 32bit Release
Nonfree 32bit Release
google-chrome

Comment 3 David GEIGER 2016-03-14 09:17:27 CET

Try to activate Core 32bit Updates and Nonfree 32bit Updates media like:


$ urpmq --list-media active
Core Release (distrib1)
Core Updates (distrib3)
Nonfree Release (distrib11)
Nonfree Updates (distrib13)
Core 32bit Release (distrib31)
Core 32bit Updates (distrib32)
Nonfree 32bit Release (distrib36)
Nonfree 32bit Updates (distrib37)

Comment 4 David GEIGER 2016-03-14 09:19:17 CET

And also refresh all medias (as root) with:

urpmi.update -a

Comment 5 Colonel Fouks 2016-03-14 09:22:40 CET

Great! After update of one of the medias(Core 32bit Updates, I think my mirror was down for a while, so I haven't received updates), it worked! Thanks a lot!
