Guillaume - it may be "crappy proprietary software" - but in order to
support various Mac/Winblows users - I need this. and would prefer to
stay under Linux using it!  I have used it in the past without issue.

There a few "key" proprietary softwares which make the Linux work a bit
easier to integrate and play nice with the others . . . Like Skype,
Picasa & Teamviewer (to name a few).  Other distros get this (like Linux
Mint!):

Let's not be so elitist here . . .
