If one for some reasons would like to install Skype on Debian Squeeze 64bit – here is how i did it:

Download 64bit Ubuntu package from: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/post-download/
Use GDebi package installer to install package (The simplest option)
(For manual command line installation: To install package called package.deb type the following command:
Go to directory where package.deb is kept. For example if it is in /tmp directory:
$ cd /tmp
Type the following command:
$ sudo dpkg -i package.deb )
libqt4-dev should also be installed (i used synaptic for that…)

There U haz it – Skype on 64bit Debian….
