I wanted to eliminate some skype errors and by installing the appmenu-gtk:i386
package the errors were gone!
$ skype
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
(skype:2841): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to load type module: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

The change was easy: sudo apt-get install appmenu-gtk:i386
I haven't noticed any "weird" outcome (yet). The good thing was that it cleared the skype errors. But I have my doubts.
Has anyone tried something similar? Removing appmenu-gtk
and installing appmenu-gtk:i386
on a 64-bit system? Could it break any applications?
