Is there a way to disable auto-login when starting skype? I don't want my skype password to be saved and automatically used to login.

@friday13, please clarify what you mean by "the wrong version number"?
friday13 commented on 2018-02-04 01:44 (UTC)
the wrong version number. Please check.

@Stempit, it looks wrong to require a GNOME package for what should be a DE agnostic application and I note that Skype/Microsoft do not include gnome-keyring as a requirement in the debian package so I am reluctant to force add it sorry.
Stempit commented on 2018-02-01 13:06 (UTC)
@bulletmark thank you for your work!
Can you add gnome-keyring to requirements, please? Without this package skype wants login and password on each start.

Thanks for your work! It's pretty excellent!

nbulat, you too just flagged this package as out of date but quoted the wrong version number. Please check before flagging!
bulletmark commented on 2018-01-19 22:17 (UTC)
RemoteAdmin, you flagged this out of date but the version you quoted is the preview version, i.e. the version of the AUR package skypeforlinux-preview-bin.

There is a problem with Skype being stuck on the login screen on first launch. That happens when your
org.freedesktop.secretsprovider doesn't have a keyring configured, i.e. also first launch.I don't know if this is a quirk of
libsecretor Skype itself, but we can't do pretty much anything about it anyway.Solutions are simple though:
Despite the login screen being stuck, the login itself is actually successful. So just kill it and run Skype again, it should be fine after that.
Configure your default keyring manually (using
seahorse,kwalletmanageretc.) before running Skype.bulletmark commented on 2020-04-30 10:01 (UTC) (edited on 2022-06-13 00:22 (UTC) by bulletmark)
To get automatic login, install a package that provides
org.freedesktop.secrets, e.g.gnome-keyring.To get a systray icon, install
libappindicator-gtk3. On GNOME, then install the appindicator extension.
