Quiero instalar Skype en Fedora 17 He intentado esto
//for dependences
yum install alsa-lib.i686 fontconfig.i686 freetype.i686 \
glib2.i686 libSM.i686 libXScrnSaver.i686 libXi.i686 \
libXrandr.i686 libXrender.i686 libXv.i686 libstdc++.i686 \
pulseaudio-libs.i686 qt.i686 qt-x11.i686 zlib.i686
//download a package from ths link
wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static
//extract the package
mkdir /opt/skype
tar xvf skype_static* -C /opt/skype --strip-components=1
//Create libtiff.so.4 link
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libtiff.so.3 /usr/lib/libtiff.so.4
//Create Launcher, Link icons, lang and sounds
ln -s /opt/skype/skype.desktop /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop
ln -s /opt/skype/icons/SkypeBlue_48x48.png /usr/share/icons/skype.png
ln -s /opt/skype/icons/SkypeBlue_48x48.png /usr/share/pixmaps/skype.png
touch /usr/bin/skype
chmod 755 /usr/bin/skype
//add following content in /usr/bin/skype
#!/bin/sh
export SKYPE_HOME="/opt/skype"
$SKYPE_HOME/skype --resources=$SKYPE_HOME $*'
La instalación fue correcta pero no puedo abrir el Skype, ¿alguien puede ayudarme?
