skype-2.1.0.81,1 && problem in child proc

Hello,

I'm using skype-2.1.0.81,1 in 10-CURRENT r226986, which works fine for
chat and video calls;

I encounter the following small problem: when a chat contains a URL one
can open that URL with a browser; it seems that skype is launching a
shell script /usr/local/bin/xdg-open which in turn tries to figure out
if the desktop is Gnome or KDE and which browser to use; it simple does
not start any browser for me; while digging into this (inserting
printf's to a log file) I see, that the script wants to launch

kfmclient exec http://www.hallo-verlag.de/... 

with the correct URL from the chat dialog in skype but this gives an
error to stderr:

Cannot open "/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so"

the shared lib exists in /compat/linux/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so
and in /usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so

$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so /compat/linux/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  4788 14 nov 12:52 /compat/linux/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  5341 14 nov 07:49 /usr/local/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so

What is the matter with this and was has 'kfmclient' todo with
v4l2convert.so shared objects?

Thanks

	matthias
