    Skype won't (de)install

    I've tried to install skype but there was an error.
    I could not install now anything because of that.
    There is an error:

    sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
    Password:
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree... Done
    E: The package skype needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it .

    I've tried:
    apt-get -f install
    apt-get remove skype

    When I tried this:
    sudo dpkg -P skype
    dpkg: error processing skype (--purge):
    Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
    reinstall it before attempting a removal.
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    skype

    Please help!
