The issue here is that the reason it's a dep is because at least some component of the skype package was built against a libstdc++ that in turn was built against a newer glibc than that provided by CentOS 7. You are playing with fire trying to bypass the dep and install it anyways. You are much better off getting the skype from the insider channel which was built without the newer library requirements. After installing it you can disable the insider repo and then you'll get newer updates from the stable repo instead (which should hopefully work in the future). Peter
