Hey Y'all,
Seems my Skype installation has stopped working.
I have skype-4.3.0.37-2.el6.i686.rpm from the Nux repo.
[mlapier at peach ~]$ skype %U
(<unknown>:27070): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "clearlooks",
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module"
I checked the yum log. Other than the 6.7 upgrade these are all the
transactions I see.

Aug 11 20:58:39 Updated: firefox-38.2.0-4.el6.centos.x86_64

Aug 11 20:58:49 Updated: google-chrome-stable-44.0.2403.155-1.x86_64
Aug 12 17:29:49 Installed: opus-1.1-1.el6.x86_64
The issue did not begin with the 6.7 upgrade.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix the issue?

On my CentOS7 system, it?s either the libcanberra-gtk2 or libcanberra-gtk3, but I bet on centos6 it?s just the gtk2 one. You probably need the 32-bit libcanberra-gtk2 package. Repeat with pk-gtk-module. The problem is that it?s not strictly Required for Skype to have the entire 32-bit graphical environment installed, but it appears that it?s necessary to have parts of gtk installed as 32-bit. -- Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org>

I would have written about it then but I needed to go to bed. 5:30 comes quickly. What I did was to enable the nux-dextop repo and run yum install skype. This is the relevant section of the yum log.
