- <p>To add the Canonical Partner repository, follow the steps
above and add the following APT line under the <gui>Other
Software</gui> tab in <app>Software Sources</app>:</p>
- <p><code>deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu natty partner</code></p>
+ <p>To enable the repository, click <link href="apt:skype">this
link</link>. If the button in the top right says <gui>Install</gui> or
<gui>Remove</gui>, the repository has already been enabled. If not,
click <gui>Use This Source</gui>. Wait a moment for Ubuntu Software
Center to download the repository information.</p>
I don't think it's appropriate for use instructions for installing
skype for all users looking to activate the Canonical Partner
Repository. There are other applications available from that
repository, and I don't think it's coherent to use one particular
application to add the repository. Skype is one which divides opinion
too so I would prefer to revert this particular revision.
What are your thoughts about this?
