Hello Guys, Recently, I have installed some custom packaged of glibc in servers I manage due to vulnerabilities. At that time, official centos packages were not available. Now, I want to roll back to centos versions. ===================================== -bash-3.2# yum info glibc Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: yum.singlehop.com * base: yum.singlehop.com * extras: mirrors.netdna.com * rpmforge: apt.sw.be * updates: yum.singlehop.com Installed Packages Name : glibc Arch : i386 Version : 2.5 Release : 49.1 Size : 22 M Repo : installed Summary : The GNU libc libraries. License : LGPL Description: The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by : multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and : memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is : kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package : contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C : library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a : Linux system will not function. Name : glibc Arch : x86_64 Version : 2.5 Release : 49.1 Size : 26 M Repo : installed Summary : The GNU libc libraries. License : LGPL Description: The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by : multiple programs on the system.

Without these two libraries, a : Linux system will not function. Available Packages Name : glibc Arch : i686 Version : 2.5 Release : 49.el5_5.6 Size : 5.3 M Repo : updates Summary : The GNU libc libraries.

Without these two libraries, a : Linux system will not function. ===================================== I tried a lot of options. "yum downgrade" is attempting to remove lot of packages which I can't afford. Yum install is hitting dependency errors. Is there a way out ? Thanks in advance for any help/advice any one could offer. -- Regards, Sherin
