Bug 182345 – skype-1.4.0.74 wrong installation if "static" USE flag is specified

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 182248
• Product: Gentoo Linux

If you emerge skype-1.4.0.74 specifying the "static" use flag, it does not install correctly because it does not find some files (skype executable and the sounds subdirectory). I solved the problem by patching the corresponding ebuild in the following way and it seems to work. You experts can see if it is a good patch :)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
USE=static emerge =skype-1.4.0.74
