skype only with SNAP (off-topic)
by Gianluca Interlandi 05 Mar '25

Dear TDE users, I understand this may be off-topic. I was trying to update skype on my openSUSE Leap 15.4 installation (I know this is no longer officially supported), but I discovered that skype is no longer provided as RPM, but only as SNAP. I have never used SNAP. Can SNAP and RPM coexist in openSUSE Leap? Is that going to create conflicts? Is there a way to extract files from the SNAP archive? All I see on the skype website is a button that says "Install" but not sure whether that installs directly or first downloads a file? Thanks!

If privacy and security matter to you, Signal is unsurpassed. I've used it for VOIP calls to Japan at no cost. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
