I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04 (amd64 version) after using 9.10 and have installed gnome-shell and removed unity.
I downloaded skype from
http://www.skype.com/en/download-sky...-for-computer/
and chose the option 'Ubunti 12.04 (Multiarch)'
This produced file skype-ubuntu-precise_4.2.0.13-1_i386.deb
I installed this with gdebi and skype worked fine.
I decided to install apt-show-versions thus:
So I took the advice:Code:$ sudo apt-get install apt-show-versions [sudo] password for : Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
