[SOLVED] Was Skype removed from Community?

I just tried to install Skype per the instructions here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Skype but pacman does not find it.

Was it removed at some point?
Is there an alternate recommended method to install it?

Thank you

Did you enable the community or multilib repo in pacman.conf and refresh the databases with "pacman -Sy"?

No, it's still in community and multilib for 64-bit http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort … =&limit=50

It was the multilib repo. I had never enabled that one.

Thanks
