Thats not going to work.  The reason we change .so names is if the
API/ABI has changed and in this case it has changed drastically.  I gave
a warning a couple of months back and went through all the apps in core
and fixed them.  This change went out with FC4T1. A simple recompile
will not do any good.  You must either talk to the Skype developers and
see if they have a newer version that is ported to the DBus-0.3x series
or patch the package.  A porting doc (which is really just notes I took)
can be found at
