I will be submitting a PR for this ebuild and I will proxy maintain it. skypeforlinux will need to be subsequently modified to accept this package as an optional runtime dependency in the same dependency list that will be added in bug 666396. The point of this package will be to allow skypeforlinux to not continue to function and not segfault on openrc/consolekit systems without bringing in any unnecessary systemd or systemd related packages and to help with potential conflicts that other packages might have with having systemd related packages installed along with openrc as one user reported with teamviewer. Using this package is not supported by Microsoft but I have tested the microphone, audio, video and made a skype call with it installed and I have not seen problems with skype and having this package installed at the same time.
net-im/skype-dbus-mock is working fine on 8.33.0.41, but now 8.33.0.41 is insisting on installing elogind. And my teamviewer is working fine, so someone needs to fix the ebuild so if net-im/skype-dbus-mock is installed then ignore elogind dependency.
Why did this get assigned to Gino? This is a new package I built and added a pull request for to proxy maintain. This package should be place in the tree first and then a new bug can be created to tell Gino to add an additional dependency on this package.
Can we please get this done soon? Right now Skype is working for me but the dependency conflict between skype-dbus-mock and elogind breaks emerge world...
This PR got closed in repo. unless skype-dbus-mock is merged in tree I won't make changes to skypeforlinux (for obvious reasons) If this changes in tree, then feel free to re-open or file a new request for changes to skypeforlinux ebuild
changing my ticket status really won't help you.

I just created a new PR. Perhaps this bug should not be assigned to you. This is to add a new package through proxy maintenance -- not for changing skypeforlinux (at least not yet).
Any progress on this?
