Having just upgraded my system from CentOS 4.4 to 5.0, I'm a bit
disappointed that I still can't install skype from the skype repo using
yum - when I try yum install skype, I end up with:

Error: Missing Dependency: qt4-x11 >= 4.2 is needed by package skype
Any ideas please as to how this can be overcome so that I can install
and run this very useful utility?

I had a hell of a time getting this to work. I ended up installing the
older version of skype (1.3.0.53).
As far as usefulness goes, you may want to look at alternatives such as
Ekiga, which are free, cross platform and use open standards. It's far
less useful when it has had the video guts ripped out of it (which the
GNU/Linux client does not support video).
Ekiga is in CentOS 5 base.
