If you are running x86_64, then you need to enable the multilib repo

Do a full update -Syu and then try to install skype

Re: [ SOLVED ] .... Target Not Found

I have multilib enabled ... That was first thing i checked .. Will take another look though just in case

This is my pacman.conf

#[testing]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[core]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
#SigLevel = PackageOptional
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[community-testing]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
#SigLevel = PackageOptional
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the multilib repositories as required here.

#[multilib-testing]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[multilib]
#SigLevel = PackageOptional
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Uncomment the line with the database name

#[multilib]

should be

[multilib]
