Hey All,

It was late last night when I figured it out.  I would have written
about it then but I needed to go to bed.  5:30 comes quickly.

What I did was to enable the nux-dextop repo and run yum install skype.
 This is the relevant section of the yum log.

Since skype is a 32-bit package, figure out what files include a file called 
canberra-gtk-module*”.  On my CentOS7 system, it’s either the libcanberra-gtk2 
or libcanberra-gtk3, but I bet on centos6 it’s just the gtk2 one.  You probably 
need the 32-bit libcanberra-gtk2 package.  Repeat with pk-gtk-module.

The problem is that it’s not strictly Required for Skype to have the entire 
32-bit graphical environment installed, but it appears that it’s necessary to 
have parts of gtk installed as 32-bit.
