Technically, you need - fedora_base installed, - ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/extras/4/i386/libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.i386.rpm (needs rpm and gcpio packages to decompress), - http://download.skype.com/linux/skype_static-1.4.0.118-oss.tar.bz2 (FreeBSD port switched to this version since Nov). Above works for me on -current (Skype is able to start and register) but sound is not tested. Thing I should mention: - noone can restrict you in using closed software like Skype (since this is your decision) but you've been warned about possible consequences. Good systrace policy may help to control Skype but I'm not sure this will work with emulated binaries. Does anybody know? - Alexey.
