  • Skype is also in the "Canonical Partners" repository, so after activating this package source in your system settings, you should be able to install it simply by executing the command sudo apt-get install skype. – Byte Commander Jul 27 '15 at 11:03

  1. Just download the .deb file from Skype website (the following link)

    Skype for Linux

  2. Put the file in your home directory from Downloads.

  3. Suppose the file name is skype-version.deb, then run the following command in the terminal

    sudo dpkg -i skype-version.deb

  4. Give your password.
