multiarch support, as added in Ubuntu Oneiric, makes it easy to install 32
bit packages on a 64 bit system. The 32 bit versions are named the same, but
with ':i386' at the end, so if you're running a 64 bit system, there is no
skype package in the repos, only one called skype:i386. Apturl flags valid
package names as invalid, with the following error:
Invalid url: 'apt:skype:i386' given, exiting
Invalid package name 'skype:i386'
