Hi, a new skype version 4.1.0.20.0-0ubuntu0.12.04.2 is available, could you please try if you still have the bug with the new version?

If you still have this problem please set the status back to "new".

thanks

I see this issue on Ubuntu saucy: When libxcursor1:i386 is not installed, a different cursor theme is used in skype windows. Possibly not skype itself, but one of its dependencies is lacking the dependency on libxcursor1:i386. As I do not use any other i386 qt applications I did not track this down any further.

Installing libxcursor1:i386 "by hand" solves this issue.

skype version 4.2.0.11-0ubuntu0.12.04.2
libxcursor1.i386 version 1:1.1.14-1
