[Bug 1155327] Re: skype crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc at plt()

[Bradley M. Froehle]

Hi Gunnar:

Yes, I have tried it by installing the packages you just linked to.  I
needed to add the line 'skype-binary=1' to /etc/xdg/sni-qt.conf to get
Skype into a usable state.  (Otherwise, as bug #863190 describes there
is no way to send a left click to the status icon which prevents re-
activating the skype window).  I should mention that I'm using the
gnome-fallback desktop environment.

Could we put the `skype` binary in a different directory (like
`/usr/lib/skype/`) to avoid renaming it?  Or does Skype locating the
other files it needs from the directory of the binary?
