[CentOS] Centos7 broken after update

[PATRICK BÉGOU]

Hi Ulf 

thanks for the suggestion. Indeed it seems I have a problem with glibc. Version is different between x86_64 and i386 and I have two glibc-common for x86_64. 
Trying to remove the old one request removing half of the system packages because of the dependancies. The newest cannot be removed. 


glibc-2.17-222.el7.i686 
glibc-2.17-260.el7.x86_64 
glibc-common-2.17-222.el7.x86_64 
glibc-common-2.17-260.el7.x86_64 
glibc-devel-2.17-260.el7.x86_64 
glibc-headers-2.17-260.el7.x86_64

restoring the old state before the broken 'yum update' can be done by 
package-cleanup. 

package-cleanup --dupes 

will give you a long list of duplicate packages. 

package-cleanup --cleandupes --removenewestdupes 

will try to remove the duplicate rpms from the update. 

after that you should run 'package-cleanup --dupes' and clean the 
remaining dupes manually. if this is done, you can try to run the 
'yum update' again. 

HTH and best regards 
Ulf
