How to install Skype in Ubuntu 9.10


How to install Skype using Mediabuntu repository
  1. Add Mediabuntu repository first. Run the following command in the Terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal):
    Code:
    sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list \
    --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list &&
    sudo apt-get -q update &&
    sudo apt-get --yes -q --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring &&
    sudo apt-get -q update
    Note: Medibuntu (Multimedia, Entertainment & Distractions In Ubuntu) is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons (copyright, license, patent, etc). Some of these packages include the libdvdcss package from VideoLAN and the external binary codecs package (commonly known as w32codecs) used by MPlayer and xine.

  2. Then download and install skype by running
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install skype
    Confirm installation by pressing "Y" and then "Enter".
