It's not possible to install it, ppc version is not supported, and source are not avaible. (you probably are istalling a binary version). Read this, http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=4153&st=0 http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=4153&st=0 It seems that they'll release a specific build for ppc.

mmhhh... you think so? I'm afraid this is simply not going to happen any time soon. The please-make-ppc-build thread on skype's forum started on 2004 and there is no sign whatsoever the company is putting any effort in it :( [QUOTE] As of today, there are no defined plans to make Skype for Linux available on other architectures. [/QUOTE] from https://developer.skype.com/jira/browse/SDS-91 I even tried to install mol (mac on linux) on my iBook G4 and run MAC OS X version on it, but currently mol has no support for recording: that is no microphone, so it's useless :( Seems like we ppc guys must wait till some smart hacker reverse-engineers the protocol (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skype_Protocol) Cheers, n4
