Did you check here? skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-linux/downloading/… FYI: Skype is not Free Software and therefore not in the main repository.– mcantsinApr 28, 2014 at 16:58

Add the repository: sudo sh -c 'echo "deb archive.canonical.com quantal partner" >> /etc/apt/sources.list' then just sudo apt-get install skype– RhZApr 28, 2014 at 17:31

Download the .deb file from skype.com
Select Ubuntu 12.04 (multiarch) in the drop down menu.
Double left-click on the .deb file it downloads. Ubuntu Software Center should handle the installation.
you can activate in the repository the programs of partners and you can do sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install skype end it's all, ubuntu it's characterized by the easiest forms to do something
