[01:54] but it is a very helpful thing to learn [01:54] itś just that are so many commands [01:54] its confusing for me [01:54] menax: But yes install that in adept then click on the Skype DEB package again and it should work [01:55] itś like wevery person have different comnds for do a thing [01:55] menax: Understood [01:55] there is a web page with the commands to have a list on what to do to search for an issue?
