Rhinoceros [1] filed a request to merge skype [2] into skype-legacy [3]: skype should be renamed skype-legacy, because it's no longer the latest stable version of skype. The latest stable version is already published as skypeforlinux-bin (I think there was a slight name change). See wiki for more information: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Skype [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Rhinoceros/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/skype/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/skype-legacy/
