Bug Description

I "purchased" Skype in the Software Center, but the installation timed out.
If I run "sudo apt-get update" I get this Error:

W: Fehlschlag beim Holen von http://archive.canonical.com/commercial-ppa-uploaders/skype/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.150 80]

I have downloaded Skype myself from skype.com and installed it manually as a temporary workaround.
