Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Well, today's update broke once again Skype for me. Since I use Skype as my telephone, this is more than frustrating. I've tried to install the 64bit version and the i386 version - to no avail. In addition, me trying to install Skype somehow broke the software- center and it won't repair.
