Oh, I thought he was trying to install on CentOS 7, but I wouldhave
still given him the same advice with the caveat taht I hadn't tried it
on CentOS 6 and don't know if it depends on anything too new for C6.

This might not be much of an issue. Possible solutions:
1. Rebuild the skypeforlinux package with rpmrebuild.
2. Create a small dummy package that requires gnome-keyring and
provides libgnome-keyring.
3. Force install skypeforlinux. I would only recommend this just to
test the package out before trying 1 or 2 above.
Personally I would try force installing the package first (yuk) and see
if it works. If it does then I would do (2) above so that updates would
install without having to repackage each time.
