RépondreSupprimerthis worked great for me, but for those who know little of linux and installing programs, the newest version of skype for linux (debian) is called "skype-debian_4.2.0.13-1_i386.deb" so instead of running
"sudo dpkg -i skype-ubuntu-lucid_4*.deb"
run "sudo dpkg -i skype-debian_4.2.0.13-1_i386.deb"
(because debian_4.2.0.13-1_i386 is the name of the file you downloaded and you do not have skype-ubuntu-lucid_4*.deb on your system)
so yea, this tutorial works wonders but you need to change the name of the file you install.
hope this helps! :)
