Can't input non-latin characters into skype on OpenSUSE 13.1

I'm currently having an annoying issue with the latest version of Skype 4.3.0.37 (installed from the RPM on a 64bit machine following the official documentation ). For some unknown to me reason, I'm unable to input any character other than English ones (i.e. cyrillic characters would appear something similar to "това е тесÑ"). When I start Skype from a console I get the following output: QIconvCodec::convertFromUnicode: using Latin-1 for conversion, iconv_open failed QIconvCodec::convertToUnicode: using Latin-1 for conversion, iconv_open failed I can write in cyrillic on every other program but not in Skype. I've checked /usr/share/fonts and I have fonts installed there so I'm not quite sure what seems to be the problem here. Any ideas on what's missing? OS: OpenSUSE 13.1x64_84
Skype: 4.3.0.37
Qt: 4 64 & 32 bit versions
