# Mobile Security (cellular technologies)Installing Skype on Fedora is a pain in the neck. And making the sound work on skype is a bigger pain! After migrating from Ubuntu to Fedora, things have become really difficult! In this post, I explain (thanks to mdim, a user on fedoraforum.org) how to install Skype on Fedora 11.
The first few steps are a copy paste of what mdim wrote on the forum:
Step 1:
Login as root in the terminal
Code:
su -And provide your root password.
Step 2:
Download the libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.i386.rpm package:
Code:
wget http://fedora.osmirror.nl/extras/5/i386/libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.i386.rpmStep 3:
Run the command:
Code:
rpm2cpio *.rpm | cpio -idmvStep 4:
Create directory /opt/libs32/ if you don’t have it yet:
Code:
mkdir /opt/libs32Step 5:
Copy libsigc-2.0.so.0 and libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0 to /opt/libs32/ directory:
Code:
cp ./usr/lib/libsigc-2.0.so.0 /opt/libs32/cp ./usr/lib/libsigc-2.0.so.0.0.0 /opt/libs32/Step 6:
Install everything that has anything to do with Qt4:
Code:
yum install qt4*Step 7:
Download the skype-1.4.0.118-fc5.i586.rpm rpm package from http://www.skype.com/intl/en/downloa…/linux/choose/and enter command in terminal:
Code:
rpm -i --force --nodeps skype-1.4.0.118-fc5.i586.rpmStep 8:
Now give the path to those libraries:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/libs32/"Step 9:
Now you can run skype by typing:
Code:
skypeIMPORTANT NOTE:
In some cases, there is this error which is encountered on the last step (Step 9).
warning: skype-2.0.0.72-fc5.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID d66b746e
And when Skype is executed, another error is encountered:
skype: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
For this, you would require the file libXss.so.1
Step 10:
Enter the following command in the terminal and then start skype.
Code:
yum install libXss.so.1
Thanx to mdim & http://xpl0it.wordpress.com/

South Africa slumped to the third spot after losing last night to Sri Lanka.
South Africa's loss also helped Australia, which gained a place to be second with 125 ratings points.
Sri Lanka occupy the fourth spot, while Pakistan are in the fifth position.
The ICC rankings are set for more changes in the next few days as the Champions Trophy continues.
