I was able to successfully make and join group calls using the Skype Linux app with folks on other platforms, including Android and Windows 10, even though they are running the very latest version of the software on their OS. A message telling other participants that I needed to update my software appeared if I tried to join the call.īut after that initial blip everything just, well, worked. The first group call I attempted to join did throw the error mentioned above.
I, personally, haven’t been able to replicate this issue consistently. In group chats, it will cause an error message telling everyone in the group you need to update.” The Skype client hasn’t been updated for years, but the newest update prevents calls between the platform. Reader Boltgolt pinged us about the issue. Except Skype for Linux hasn’t been updated since 2014. That wouldn’t normally be an issue, of course. When a Linux user attempts to join a group call started on a newer version of the Skype client for Windows or Mac a message is posed to the group informing them that Linux participants are ‘unable to join’ and should ‘update’ their version of the app. The latest (in a long line of) issue(s) with the Skype Linux app) seems to have started on Feb 22.
Linux users say they are unable to join Skype group calls started using the most recent version of the VoIP client on other operating systems. Have you been experiencing issues with Skype calls on Linux lately? If so, know that you are not alone.
