Skype Preview - Deprecation notice for older versions

Hello.

If you are using the Skype Preview for Linux app (versions lower than 8.7) you will see messages saying an update is available.

After you click Update or Exit the app will quit and you will need to get the latest version through your desidered Software Updater.

You can download and install the newest update from:

Download DEB | Download RPM

The reason we’re forcing updates is to test our update mechanism for future work.

Thanks for your support!

The update mechanism did not seem to work - it just told me that "this version of Skype is not supported". Thanks for providing a link to the updated version in this post!
