I was trying to install the last package (thanks Djemos) of skype for linux. He has provided an SLKBUILD.

When I give the order slkbuild, the console gives me an error:

Code: Select all

root /opt/skypeforlinux # ls -l
total 4
-rwsrwsrwx 1 lluis users 1211 ago 27 15:07 skypeforlinux.SLKBUILD
root /opt/skypeforlinux # slkbuild
Automatically setting arch to x86_64
ERROR: No SLKBUILD found in directory, see slkbuild --help
root /opt/skypeforlinux #

What am I doing bad?

The name of the file should be just "SLKBUILD". And you'd probably want to run slkbuild with either the -x or -X options.

The procedure to build skypeforlinux from an SLKBUILD is to create a folder named skypeforlinux.
Download the SLKBUILD for skypeforlinux to this folder then cd to download folder and type
fakeroot slkbuild -X
Or download latest binary package for skypeforlinux

Thanks Gapan (and Djemos).
The trick was to rename the downloaded file from skypeforlinux.SLKBUILD to SLKBUILD. Then all the process was fine.

A suggestion: the

Code: Select all

man slkbuild

page could indicate that, i.e., the expected file by the order slkbuild is just SLKBUILD, not xxxx.SLKBUILD.

Can you rename the first post adding SOLVED?
