Bug Description
Binary package hint: skype
Skype started fine when I logged on this morning, but then it crashed mid-chat-
I'm not sure if the crash is important - it does that, but perhaps the reason it won't start is related to an update? I have security updates install silently in the background, so I'm not sure. Installing all outstanding updates and rebooting does not clear to problem.
I'm running 11.04.
When I try to run skype from the command line I get this output:
$ skype

Just got the exact same issue with 11.04, was working well before I apply the update but i don't remember what was in the update.
