libtiff.so.4 => not found how to install this libraries ..?
i'm using slackware64 -Current with Multilib

As root cd first to /usr/lib and run the code
Code:
ln -s libtiff.so.3 libtiff.so.4
and the run it again in /usr/lib64 as you are running Slackware64.

Sparkeyjames's solution works great! Pretty simple for me too 
I'd believe the multilibs should not be needed.
Thanks James!

The logs files are binary files that contains no very useful info.

A Log file is a file that contains all information about a single session of Skype. It helps us greatly in debugging problems in Skype and enables us to fix problems that you may encounter inside Skype.
|
But if you want you may remove the "rm" line from /usr/bin/skype.
Quote:
Linux
Close Skype
Create directory “Logs” under your Skype data directory (~/.Skype/)
Restart Skype
Log file (skype_yyyy-mm-dd-hhmmss) will be created in ~/.Skype/Logs
To turn off logging again, delete the “Logs” directory
|
The history is saved on remote server.

However.., some people noticed some problem with the 13.37 version... (italian topic: http://www.slacky.eu/forum/viewtopic...=35888#p320725)
I have no a 13.37 to test it.
Someone had experienced?
