Skype downloading failed

Hi everyone
There is a problem with downloading Skype by command make fetch from ports. I've got such a message:
===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
ATTENTION!

Skype requires at least linux_base-fc6
which is NOT default at this time.
If you don't have that version or above installed,
hit 'control c' now!

Please read /usr/ports/UPDATING 20080318
for update and install instructions.

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/net/skype.
Maybe someone knows another links where I can get it from
 
I'm afraid the port is outdated and Skype isn't kind enough to keep old versions on their server. Googling the version didn't show any usable results either.

The current version is 2.1.0.81. You could ask the maintainer of the port if he could update it.
