How to Frankenstein Skype 4.3 on Debian 7?

Question

linux

It was always 2.0 beta
After the protocol was upgraded by the guys from MS, it stopped entering
[crossed out] 4.3 was installed [/ crossed out]
Downloaded and unpacked the archive of compiled files (the package was not installed, breaking system dependencies)
After installation, it started successfully (after removing the old folder ~ /.Skype)
During operation, a number of glitches can be traced, the most infernal one shows online people who are offline (after necrancy on the tablet, I squeezed version 2 in there, everything is ok)
When you try to slip the profile data from the old config, it crashes. If you run in the console writes
28394 Emergency stop
What else does he need ???

If Skype is needed only as a chat, you can use the web face through outlook.
