To install Skype, create the file /etc/yum.repo.d/skype.repo. It should have the following contents

#gpgkey=http://www.skype.com/products/skype/linux/rpm-public-key.asc
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-skype
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0 # The key currently fails for me, so I disabled this check.
After the repo is in place, perform the following command
$ sudo yum install skype
Personally, I prefer Thunderbird for email over the default Evolution. Install Thunderbird using
$ sudo yum install thunderbird
I haven’t spent the time to understand the proper configuration for SELinux. Therefore, I just disable it. Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/selinux and set SELINUX=disabled.
