I just did a google search for skype for Fedora 20 and got taken to a
skype.com page that allows me to download an rpm for Fedora 16 (or that
is what the dropdown says). And the rpm is:
skype-4.2.0.13-fc16
we will see how it goes. I am suppose to call a colleague tomorrow via
skype.
Please, build it yourself. Download use these skype.desktop and
skype.spec:
