Your solution only works on CentOS 7. The OP is trying to install Skype
on CentOS 6. The Skype package requires
[root at peach ~]# yum install skypeforlinux
Error: Package: skypeforlinux-1.12.0.4-1.x86_64 (skype-stable)
Requires: libgnome-keyring
[root at peach RPM_REPO]# yum install libgnome-keyring-3.8.0-3.el7.x86_64.rpm
Error: libgnome-keyring conflicts with gnome-keyring-2.28.2-8.el6_3.x86_64
Error: libgnome-keyring conflicts with gnome-keyring-2.28.2-8.el6_3.i686
On CentOS 6 the package is named gnome-keyring. On CentOS 7 the package
is named libgnome-keyring. libgnome-keyring is not available on CentOS
6 so the package will not install.
