ouyi/docker-ubuntu32-skype repository overview

⁠About

Dockerized Skype based on 32-bit Ubuntu (see also: https://github.com/ouyi/docker-ubuntu-precise-core-i386⁠). The implementation is based on https://github.com/terlar/docker-skype-pulseaudio⁠.

⁠Prerequisite

A working docker installation. Please refer to the docker documentation⁠ for this.

To be able to run docker as normal user (i.e., without using sudo) as follows, a group called docker must exists and the user must be member of that group.

⁠Usage

1. Clone this repository and change to the directory:

  git clone https://github.com/ouyi/docker-ubuntu32-skype.git && cd docker-ubuntu32-skype

1. Build the container:

  docker build -t <image_name> .

1. Run the provided skype script:

  ./skype.sh <image_name> <container_name>

⁠Known issues

• If the host machine has a VPN connection, the Docker container may have problems accessing the Internet. Adding "--net=host" may work around the issue.
• On fedora 25, I need to use "setenforce 0" to avoid "groupadd: failure while writing changes to /etc/group"
