Hello Sachin,

If you want to add skype indicator First run the below command on your terminal-

sudo apt-get update

This command will download and update your packages you requires.

After this run the below command:

sudo apt-get install libappindicator1

after this run the command you mentioned, and shown below

sudo apt-get install sni-qt:i386

Now Go to Top right of skype screen click on Skype----> Options-----> notification

Now at the bottom check the check box Display built-in System Pop-up Notification

and Restart the system.

Doing this Notification icon will appear on top right of home screen.

Thats it.

Thanks Ankit and Narendra for Responding,

I tried the steps advised by Ankit It worked but running the sudo apt-get install libappindicator1 command my chrome get uninstall, later on I again need to install chrome. :)

It seems that the skype is not in the white list for the panel. Install dconf-tools using

sudo apt-get install dconf-tools

then run dconf from dash and you can find the white listed applications under

Desktop>unity>panel

you would find entry for systray-whitelist, just add skype to this list and then restart.

Hope this works for you.
