Public bug reported: My understanding is that the current skype client package distributed in the partner archive is EOL and no longer usable as of July 1, 2017.
https://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-linux/ The app also appears not to launch at all for me as of zesty. Since there is no newer version of skype that we have license to distribute, we should remove these old packages from the partner archive. ** Affects: skype (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical Partner Developers, which is subscribed to skype in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1701746 Title: skype package out of date and unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skype/+bug/1701746/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev Post to : canonical-partner-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~canonical-partner-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
