  C6 with CR x86_64

Third time when trying to install a packet I get:

yum install samba

Had the same problem yesterday with a Canondriver-rpm and earlier with either Hugin or Scribus.
Searched on Google and found many old pages (afaik nothing C6).

I don't think there is a glibc-common i686 package (neither do I know if that would be a good idea).
Should I downgrade glibc-common to 2.12-1.7? Or install a second glibc-common? Or just wait?

BTW I tried to install Samba with only Base, Updates and CR repo enabled.

Thanks
Patrick
