RE: Yum is kicking because of glibc-common conflicts

["Arch Willingham" <arch tuparks com>]

You are right....I tried that and got:

rpm -qa |grep glibc-common
glibc-common-2.5.90-22
glibc-common-2.5.90-21

I then ran 'rpm -e --nodeps glibc-common-2.5.90-21.rpm' which whacked the duplicate package. I tired re-running YUM and got the same error message as below. I then ran 'rpm -e --nodeps glibc' and found two more duplicates so I ran:

 

rpm -e --nodeps glibc-devel-2.5.90-21

rpm -e --nodeps glibc-2.5.90-21

 

I tired re-runnign YUM and that time it worked.

 

Thanks!

I had a similar issue for awhile too.  It turns out I had two glibc-common packages installed simultaneously, one was hanging around from FC6 days.  I had to do an 'rpm -e --nodeps glibc-common-#####.rpm' with the old version number to get rid of the older version.  Try doing an 'rpm -qa |grep glibc-common' and verifying you don't have an older version hanging around.
