Hello, The web site:

http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype

 as Akemi suggested was very useful. I did:

1) wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-centos
   It download an rmp file: skype-2.0.0.43-centos.i586.rpm

2) yum localinstall skype-2.0.0.43-centos.i586.rpm
   This will install skype with all dependencies

If you install with "rpm -Uvh skype-2.0.0.43-centos.i586.rpm" , there are a lot of dependencies.

 Regards, rachid ayad.

This is why I got stuck at fc3.  If you download the static version you
find the current one needs libsigc and as I recall even if you find a
workable libsigc there are still issues (maybe unique to x86_64).  If
you find a suitable solution spread it around.

The only one for 4.5 I could find is an old one for FC3
(skype-1.3.0.53-fc3.i586.rpm).  If you are using SL5 you can find (on
the skype site) a beta for centos 5 which will work.

 Hello, I did :

 rpm -Uvh --nodeps skype-1.4.0.118-fc5.i586.rpm
warning: skype-1.4.0.118-fc5.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY,

 But when running "skype" it gave:

 Hello, It seems in the skype web site: no skype rpm for SL, so what I
should download as linux (fedora ..) for skype?
