Unfortunately (see the end for the reason) I need to run skype. This
seems to be a mess to build.
I already
added it to package.accept_keywords
added about 100 entries to package.use (for abi_x86_32)
accepted the license
Now I have a slot conflict. Below the abbreviated output is the

Hi=)
Can't really help with 32bit conflicts, I gave up on it since other
unofficial packages got broken.
But you can try workaround with disabled abi_x86_32, put skype ebuild to
your local overlay and remove all abi_x86_32 related in it. And it still
can fail=)
Or you can give a try to
Hi,
I hate those tons of abi_x86_32 packages as well.
This is also not solving your slot conflict, but why not:
- Use a Windows VM for Skype
- Use a small Linux VM for Skype (e.g. Debian)

As I recall, and a quick look at `man portage', a file named
`package.provided' is meant for such things.
The syntax is not described in detail... I tried these:
/etc/portage/package.provided

A finite subset of this package.use file will let skype install,
followed of course by
emerge skype.
I arrived at this list the long hard way, repeatedly running emerge and
adding stuffs still portage stopped it's whinging. The worst part is Qt
and X11 as skype is a Qt app and no longer bundles a
