Skype for Linux 4.3 database hack to avoid segfault on start up.
So you just were forced to upgrade your Skype for Linux to 4.3? I bet you like many others had your system lockup a moment, then skype crashed with a segfault.
Here is the solution.
$ sqlite3 ~/.Skype/[YOURUSER}/main.db sqlite> DELETE FROM Messages WHERE type=68; sqlite> .quit
