No idea.

Several packages create files in /etc/skel/, at least if Redhat is what 
you are using. Is this RH you are talking about? If so, then it looks 
like you manually deleted it, or are not viewing "hidden" dot files 
(files starting with "."). Using ls does not show those, use "ls -aF". 
If you still do not see files, then you deleted them. bash provides 
files here, kdebase provides files here, emacs provides files here; so 
to have no files here, you would have to either have none of the above 
on the system (and you most certainly have bash), or your ls command was 
incomplete and did not show them.
