So it looks like this is NOT skype.  I find the following description in 
the rpm:

Project URL : http://github.com/leamas/lpf

Bootstrap package allowing the lpf system to build the 
non-redistributable skype
package.

The skype package is available only for i686 systems.

So if skype provides the rpm for download, looks like that is what you do.
