They didn't, they probably just repackaged the binary files.
Me just wonders how they deal with the gcc-abi change? The binary seemed to
run with _both_ gcc packages (although the contacts were not visible with the
c2 version of libqt).
Currently, I use the statically linked version.
But who cares: skype sucks. They stick with a really bad audio device access
implementation (OSS-only) that breaks very often.
