I asked them to add a conflict with our skype-common package, to avoid the common bug explained above.

Anyone can recreate a skype package, file a bug report and propose it for inclusion. But the usual behavior (even in Ubuntu) is rather: "a person works for its inclusion and then vanishes". That's why I'm more inclined to drop this kind of packages. Since nobody proposed for four months (it was removed in december), I think that everyone is happy with the package on the official website (or whatever package one can find). > I thought Medibuntu stood for "Multimedia, Entertainment & Distractions In > Ubuntu". Well, actually, Medibuntu was "invented" first, and then we thought it could be great if it were an acronym, and we tried to find a word matching each letter (I'm not actually very proud of the result :p). > [...] there's already a script for installing libdvdcss in libdvdread It downloads the package from our repository. If it fails, it downloads the source code and builds the library. @mzc > Sounds like a bug#1 regression to me:( You should ask Canonical to include Skype in the "partner" repository. This is what happened for Adobe Reader, and we removed it from Medibuntu, and everyone is happy now. -- Move to -staging/remove skype packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Medibuntu Packaging Team, which is the registrant for Medibuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~medibuntu-maintainers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~medibuntu-maintainers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
