sudo dpkg - skype-ubuntu*.deb
[sudo] password for user: 
dpkg: error: need an action option


Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*];
Use `dselect' or `aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;

Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' !

I got this output when try to install Skype on Ubuntu 13.04.

Try this instead sudo dpkg -i skype-ubuntu*.deb It should now work without any error.
