**Important notice**
|
||||
|
||||
All Skype for Linux clients version 4.3 and older will be retired on
|
||||
July 1, 2017. To keep chatting, please install the latest version of
|
||||
Skype for Linux -- the new 'skypeforlinux' SlackBuild here at SBo.
|
||||
|
||||
Skype is a free Voice Over IP program for Linux, Windows, and MacOS. It
|
||||
allows users to communicate with other Skype users running any of the
|
||||
supported platforms, as well as receiving and placing calls from and to
|
||||
normal land lines and mobile phones.
|
||||
|
||||
This script repackages the shared tarball provided by Skype, which has
|
||||
been built dynamically. Static binary support has been discontinued.
|
||||
|
||||
See README.SLACKWARE (which is also installed with the package docs) for
|
||||
setup, configuration, and usage hints.

Skype and camera issues
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
It has been pointed out by a lot of users that Skype has problems with
|
||||
some cameras, in most cases this leads to green screen or no video at
|
||||
all. This happens because V4L API (legacy) has been dropped from newer
|
||||
kernels, and pixel format decoding has been pushed to user space.
|
||||
Moreover, V4L2 does not support kernel space decoding. Since Skype
|
||||
supports only V4L, easiest way to get it working is to preload it with
|
||||
V4L compatibility library, and call Skype like this:
|
||||
|
||||
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype
|
||||
|
||||
If you are still having problems, try adding the following as well:
|
||||
|
||||
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
|
||||
|
||||
Included with this package is an alternative desktop file modified to
|
||||
include those variables. For easy use, just copy it to your home
|
||||
directory:
|
||||
|
||||
cp /usr/doc/skype-4.3.0.37/skype-alternative.desktop \
|
||||
~/.local/share/applications
|
||||
|
||||
Skype and pulseaudio dependencies
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
With the introduction of Skype 4.3 series, all built-in ALSA support
|
||||
has been completely removed. What this means is that we now have one
|
||||
more dependency to deal with, and for 64bit Slackware users this makes
|
||||
things even more complex, because they have to build 32bit counterparts
|
||||
and use convertpkg script to make them installable on their systems.
|
||||
At the time of writing this, pulseaudio also requires json-c and speex
|
||||
dependencies, so if you are on a 32bit system, it should be enough to
|
||||
build these and installpkg them.
|
||||
For a 64bit setup, you will have to build all three dependencies, and
|
||||
in the end you will end up with a total of six packages, three for each
|
||||
platform. To do this, you will obviously need multilib packages from
|
||||
Eric Hameleers, so make sure you check README that comes with them.
|
||||
After 32bit packages are built, convert them like this:
|
||||
|
||||
convertpkg-compat32 -i json-c-0.11-i486-1_SBo.tgz -e tgz
|
||||
convertpkg-compat32 -i speex-1.2rc1-i486-3_SBo.tgz -e tgz
|
||||
convertpkg-compat32 -i pulseaudio-5.0-i486-1_SBo.tgz -e tgz
|
||||
|
||||
And installpkg resulting packages as usual.
|
||||
|
||||
Skype and pulseaudio dependencies (addendum)
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
It turns out, all of the above can be skipped by using apulse to wrap
|
||||
around Skype binary. Naturally, for 64bit users this makes things a bit
|
||||
harder, and a 32bit apulse compat32 package is required instead. In any
|
||||
case, it's still a bit cleaner then having a whole pulseaudio installed
|
||||
and interfering with the rest of the system, and only to serve Skype.
|
||||
Find apulse SlackBuild at the usual awesome place, the slackbuilds.org
|
||||
Website. Thanks goes to Andrzej Telszewski for pointing it out!
|
||||
|
||||
Skype with a grain of salt
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
Running binary-only applications might give open source literate people
|
||||
a certain dose of unease. Even more so when this application runs at
|
||||
computer start up, has constant outbound network access, becomes a
|
||||
super node when open ports from the internet are detected, effectively
|
||||
accepting random connections from other users on the internet. If you
|
||||
are not scared enough already, think about access to your sound card,
|
||||
camera, and precious files after reading the above!
|
||||
Sure, some will argue that privacy is a thing of the past, and not to
|
||||
run such applications if you don't want to, but sometimes you simply
|
||||
don't have a choice. Whether it's your long distance family members or
|
||||
coworkers and friends, price is the same, you are left with an ugly
|
||||
written app (just look at that 64bit support) that is probably full of
|
||||
horrible holes, intentional or not (really :^)
|
||||
While safest thing, of course, is to avoid using it, and probably turn
|
||||
off your computer for good, right before you put on that tin foil hat
|
||||
or bury your head in a hole somewhere, we wont be exploring those
|
||||
options in this awesome README!
|
||||
Instead, we will start from the obvious, firewall unused ports on your
|
||||
computer, in most cases it's fine to close them all down. Next in line
|
||||
are also obvious things, if you do not trust that little light on your
|
||||
camera, unplug it when your haircut is not presentable to the world.
|
||||
Same goes for your microphone, and if it's an integrated one, take it
|
||||
from the pro's in the police department that use adhesive tape to cover
|
||||
it up :-)
|
||||
Now that manual labor is out the way, we come to a much more fun part,
|
||||
protecting your precious files in $HOME. For this we take advantage of
|
||||
multi-user environment, and simply run Skype under another user with
|
||||
basic access. Without further ado, create another user and group with:
|
||||
|
||||
groupadd -g 666 spyke
|
||||
useradd -u 666 -d /home/spyke -m -s /bin/bash -g spyke spyke
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally give this user access to hardware:
|
||||
|
||||
usermod -G audio,video,pulse -a spyke
|
||||
|
||||
If you previously had Skype set-up that you wish to keep, move it with:
|
||||
|
||||
cp -a $HOME/.Skype /home/spyke
|
||||
chown -R spyke:spyke /home/spyke/.Skype
|
||||
|
||||
Allow group execution:
|
||||
|
||||
echo "%spyke ALL=(spyke) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/skype" \
|
||||
>> /etc/sudoers.d/66_spyke
|
||||
|
||||
Add your user to this new group:
|
||||
|
||||
usermod -G spyke -a USERNAME
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, run it like this:
|
||||
|
||||
xhost +local: \
|
||||
&& sudo -u spyke /usr/bin/skype
|
||||
|
||||
Attention, due to lack of goofiness in this README, anagrams were used
|
||||
to fill that void. Together with some number crafting, level of Slack
|
||||
has peaked, and the trumpets were blown.

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
|
||||
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
|
||||
# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
|
||||
# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
|
||||
# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
|
||||
# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
