Public bug reported:
The contents of /usr/share/app-install/desktop/skype.desktop specify
Exec=skype-wrapper, but there is no such program. As a result, after
installing Skype through the Ubuntu Software Center, clicking the
launcher icon does nothing. Changing the Exec line to Exec=skype
corrects the problem for me.
