Description of problem:

Skype is loaded using a shell script (/usr/bin/skype) executed by bash. The way the script is now, a bash process stays idle, in memory, while skype is running.

With a small change to the script the bash process would only run in the beginning to launch skype.

/usr/bin/skype NOW:
#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so /usr/share/skype/skype

/usr/bin/skype AFTER CHANGE:
#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so exec /usr/share/skype/skype
