I'm guessing it's an arch mismatch. please add the following line to root's .rpmmacros %_query_all_fmt %%{name}-%%{version}-%%{release}.%%{arch} then rpm -q glibc then do 'yum list glibc' yum by default has exactarch matching enabled. my guess is that the arch on your system doesn't match the updated arch on the mirrors. -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center
