I'm not a developer, which means I can't actively pick up any packages. If |
18 |
helpful, I would be willing to go through older open bugs and see if there is |
19 |
anything I can pick up. |

For net-im/skype, I did check a few things last week as I had issues |
22 |
connecting: |
23 |
bugs: 461668, 462504, 440512, 467252, 493068, 512576 are for version <4.3 |
24 |
which can no longer connect (Versions are being blocked by Skype upstream) |
25 |
I think these can be closed. |
26 |
Other bugs: |
27 |
485792 - xscreensaver not showing skype notifications (I don't actually want |
28 |
this myself, so not able to test) |
29 |
519096 - issue with 32bit compilation (I use amd64 exclusively, unable to |
30 |
test) |
31 |
518922 - hard dependency need to be added for pulseaudio (I see some ebuild- |
32 |
code already listed, already got pulseaudio installed seperately) |
33 |
514888 - Seems to be related to an issue with old chat-logs, there are links |
34 |
to skype-upstream in the report. This did not occur on my systems. |
