After upgrading to 14.10 Skype was removed from my installed packages. When trying to install I get this message: 

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
skype : Depends: skype-bin

I've attempted installing with apt-get, the deb from Skype, and the software center with no luck. I've tried several methods including the ones listed here:

I experienced the same, and that's what helped me:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ondrej-php5-trusty.list

Than remove the hashes (#) re-enable that PPA which were disabled by updating system

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install skype

I just have had same issue, And run the following commands:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype-bin
wget download.skype.com/linux/skype-ubuntu-precise_4.3.0.37-1_i386.deb
sudo gdebi skype-ubuntu-precise_4.3.0.37-1_i386.deb

And thats it, my skype has started like a charm. :)
