I have upgraded from ubuntu 22.04 -> 24.04 and I have some issues with the skype repo. I uninstalled the skypeforlinux but the repo...I can't remove it.

On every update I get this error:

Err:5 https://repo.skype.com/deb stable InRelease                                                                                                                                                                                                              503  Service Unavailable [IP: 2a02:26f0:3500:c84::1263 443]Fetched 1.080 kB in 7s (144 kB/s)                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Reading package lists...

They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I tried to remove the ppa like this:

sudo add-apt-repository --remove https://repo.skype.com/deb stable main

but I get this error:

How can I remove the skype ppa???
