I have seen that in some countries Skype for Linux is not available. They get redirected to old Skype or they get a message that they don't have access.
When I try to search it using:
apt-cache search skype
It doesn't return skypeforlinux, but it returns skype (the older version). When I search on my pc, it shows skypeforlinux and not skype. These two versions are not compatible for calling each other. So, I want to know how can I install Skype for Linux on my friend's computer who is in another country?
I sent the deb file for new skype but when he launches the skypeforlinux, it doesn't work.
