    Worked for me too but my history is gone.

    God this is the second time I’ve seen this overkill suggestion come up.  You delete your .skype dir and you will loose all of your chat histories on that computer forever.  The only file you need to remove is shared.xml, you don’t need to drop a bloody h-bomb on skype.

    Worked for me too

    i just renamed ~/.Skype to ~/.Skype2, logged on(i lost history), logout, rename ~/.Skype2 to ~/.Skype and all fine(history come back) :)

    Thanks – this worked on my kde opensuse 12.1.

  • Dharnesh

    I followed the same steps but still it fails

  • Taras

    So where is the solution for those to whom it did not work? For me also :/

I tried it and it works with a regular zip file, but if you password-protect the .zip file it does NOT work.

After install as above, run shell script /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfica.sh manually and note lib errors still occur. I had the x64 motif loaded but had to manually install the x86 too. Got that from http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libXm.so.4 Even after that, I still had to do a “yum install alsa-lib.i686 alsa-lib.x86_64″ to resolve any additional libasound.so.2 errors. Once those two lib issues were resolved, Citix Web Interface launched apps fine by telling browser to open launch.ica using /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfica.sh. Good luck Ernesto!
