Remove old skype plugin. Use the skypeweb purple plugin instead.
RIP This plugin relied on the skype linux client, which doesn't work anymore. During login it just does exit(0) for mysterious reasons. I guess that's the server trying to say that it's not supported. This is officially dead now after a few years of kinda-almost-working.

-== NAME
-
-skyped - allows remote control of the Skype GUI client
-
-== SYNOPSIS
-
-skyped [<options>]
-
-== DESCRIPTION
-
-Skype supports remote control of the GUI client only via X11 or DBus
-messages. This is hard in case you want remote control. This daemon
-listens on a TCP port and runs on the same machine where the GUI client
-runs. It passes all the input it gets to Skype directly, except for a
-few commands which is related to authentication. The whole communication
-is done via SSL.
-
-== CONFIGURATION
-
-- Set up `~/.skyped/skyped.conf`: Create the `~/.skyped` directory, copy
- `skyped.conf` and `skyped.cnf` from `/usr/local/etc/skyped/` to `~/.skyped`,
- adjust `username` and `password`. The `username` should be your Skype login and
- the `password` can be whatever you want, but you will have to specify that one
- when adding the Skype account to BitlBee (see later).
-
-NOTE: Here, and later - `/usr/local/etc` can be different on your installation
-if you used the `--sysconfdir` switch when running the `configure` of BitlBee.
-
-- Generate the SSL pem files:
-
-----
-$ cd ~/.skyped
-$ openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -config skyped.cnf -out skyped.cert.pem \
- -keyout skyped.key.pem
-----
-
-- Start `skyped` (the TCP server), initially without detaching and enabling debug messages:
-
-----
-$ skyped -d -n
-----
-
-- Start your `IRC` client, connect to BitlBee and add your account:
-
-----
-account add skype <user> <pass>
-----
-
-`<user>` should be your Skype account name, `<pass>` should be the one you declared
-in `skyped.conf`.
