skype.desktop Exec line refers to non-existent "skype-wrapper" program, breaking the launcher icon

[Tristan Schmelcher]

The contents of /usr/share/app-install/desktop/skype.desktop specify Exec=skype-wrapper, but there is no such program. As a result, after installing Skype through the Ubuntu Software Center, clicking the launcher icon does nothing. Changing the Exec line to Exec=skype corrects the problem for me.

It seems there are no /usr/share/app-install/desktop/skype.desktop file in the latest release of app-install-data-partner package (13.04), see bug #1005209 for more info.
