I just installed 42.1 today and everything seems to be working well, with the exception of the skype installation.
I followed the instructions here but with no luck.
The install seems to have worked and skype shows up in the launcher window, but when I click on it nothing happens. I’ve tried with and without the wrapper script with the same results. Any thoughts?
when I installed skype I simply installed the rpm without having to make additional changes and it worked right off.
What happens if you run skype from terminal? what message does it give you?
skype
Skype is 32 bit and so needs 32 bit libraries which you may need to install. In a console run skype this will tell you the reason for the errors. Install the 32 bit versions of the libraries it reports as missing
Ok, thanks. Turns out I was missing the Mesa-libGL1-32bit libraries. That fixed the problem.
