Skype plugin no longer searches over contacts

[grosser]

After updating to natty(thereby upgrading gnome-do and skype) gnome-do stopped suggesting skype contacts

[Collin Peters (collin-peters)]

I can confirm the same behaviour on Natty. Basically makes the Skype plugin useless

[vx (rastavibes)]

I can confirm this happens on my Archlinux setup.

Relevant details:

gnome-do 0.8.3.1-2
gnome-do-plugins 0.8.2.1-1
skype 2.2.0.25-1

I can confirm this in Natty with skype 2.2.0.25

[X-Stranger (xstranger)]

The same or me

[Matjaz (matjazpirnovar)]

In my case DO is not picking up skype contacts on Ubuntu 10.10 (not Natty).
I can see icons for skype chat, skype call, recent chats etc. but none of them work because there are no contacts to choose from.
If I should be posting this as a separate report, do let me know.

Hm. I wonder if Skype has changed it's DBus interface. I'll check with shiny new Skype and see.

At startup the plugin crashes with the following output:
