Did you download the update by clicking on the link in the website or did your package manager see the update in the repository?
Which version are you using, I am using the deb version for Ubuntu?
sorry, didn't fully understand your question -- I'm a Linux noob
I am running same version and Synaptic Pkg Mgr still shows 2.0.0.68
I am investigating why that is
Update:
the short answer is that Skype screwed up
they have now been informed of the oversight and the issue should be fixed very soon
