Bug Description

It is not possible to install Skype from partner repository, yet all the docs (i.e. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype) still offer to install it from this repository. Please fix either docs or repository.

Thanks for your report!

Please note that the page in question is a wiki page which anybody can
edit - including you. ;-)
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide
I'd say that the page should be rewritten rather than removed, so I
added a "Needs Updating" tag for now.

Due to the nature of the community help wiki, you can't request changes
to it in the form of bug reports.

However, there is also a need to update the Skype page in the official
documentation:

https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-chat-skype.html

That page should be fixed before the release of Ubuntu 17.10.
