I'm also getting this error on up to date Arch.
/usr/share/skypeforlinux/glibc/usr/lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2)

@kristianjgs, the latest package works for me also. What distro are you running and is your system up to date?
mozo commented on 2018-08-14 15:57 (UTC)
Works great here with up to date Arch.

Hi! last version don't work. the log ./.config/skypeforlinux/logs/skype-startup.log show the next

glibc 2.28-2 (currently in testing) seems to resolve the glibc issue. I am able to run skypeforlinux without its own glibc 2.27.

@Eschwartz, I took the stable and preview skype packages up after they were disowned and pretty much kept the original PKGBUILD. If I run this with the system rather than embedded electron then my video camera does not work so that is an example of the kind of bug likely if we don't go with package as created by the upstream skype devs. BTW, if you would like to discuss this further then please create a bug or forum post as dialog here is comparatively awkward.
eschwartz commented on 2018-08-08 20:48 (UTC)
Have you considered, instead, fixing a longstanding mistake and using the system electron via a simple launcher script running electron /usr/lib/skypeforlinux/ (and installing, from data.tar.xz, the directory ./usr/share/skypeforlinux/resources/app.asar.unpacked/)?
Also, this upstream .deb violates both Debian and Arch packaging guidelines, because it installs arch-dependent binaries to /usr/share instead of /usr/lib -- and also because prebuilt standalone electron garbage belongs in /opt
Just because no one at Microsoft knows how to package doesn't mean you should blindly do everything they do.

Thank you bulletmark. It's great!

There is a problem with Skype being stuck on the login screen on first launch. That happens when your
org.freedesktop.secretsprovider doesn't have a keyring configured, i.e. also first launch.I don't know if this is a quirk of
libsecretor Skype itself, but we can't do pretty much anything about it anyway.Solutions are simple though:
Despite the login screen being stuck, the login itself is actually successful. So just kill it and run Skype again, it should be fine after that.
Configure your default keyring manually (using
seahorse,kwalletmanageretc.) before running Skype.bulletmark commented on 2020-04-30 10:01 (UTC) (edited on 2022-06-13 00:22 (UTC) by bulletmark)
To get automatic login, install a package that provides
org.freedesktop.secrets, e.g.gnome-keyring.To get a systray icon, install
libappindicator-gtk3. On GNOME, then install the appindicator extension.
