Since I updated to Quantal Skype doesn't work and I get this error when updating:

W:GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net quantal Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F6A071ABEE5D5BA2

Try this

sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com F6A071ABEE5D5BA2
sudo apt-get update

to correct the problem with the W:GPG error

If you search , you will not find any address like this http://archive.canonical.com/commercial-ppa-uploaders/ . The address is wrong or not exist.

If you have added external PPA with this name , disable it or fully remove it. See here how.

Enable the partners repository , see here how and then search Ubuntu Software Center to install Skype correctly.
