Now you can do: package-cleanup --cleandupes and it should remove the older, duplicate packages for you. then your glibc install should work hopefully. kevin

package-cleanup did not help either. I reinstalled and works fine now. Nonetheless thanks a lot for helping me troubleshoot this. It must have been the crash in the first big yum update that messed things up for me.

You'll need to update the x86_64 version to the same version of the 32-bit package you're trying to install. So either run # yum update followed by # yum install glibc.i686 or, to update just the 64-bit glibc package run # yum install glibc.i686 glibc.x86_64 -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola(a)fedoraproject.org

what does: rpm -qa | grep glibc | sort glibc-2.12.90-17.x86_64

glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 glibc-common-2.12.90-17.x86_64 glibc-common-2.12.90-19.x86_64

yum check output is a long list of packages with last line:

Error: check_all I've attached the complete output in a txt file.

output? was this an upgraded machine? How did you do the upgrade?

This is a fresh install , during the first time I ran yum update immediately after install, the machine froze, i rebooted, and then did yum update, some error came up and adviced me to run yum-complete-transaction Thanks!

thanks, I should mention that I have tried the following already: yum update [goes just fine and no new updates needed to be done] yum install glibc.i686 and I get: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/doc/glibc-2.12.90/NEWS from install of glibc-2.12.90-19.i686 conflicts with file from package glibc-2.12.90-17.x86_64 and doing : yum upgrade glibc gives: Transaction Check Error: package glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 (which is newer than glibc-2.12.90-17.i686) is already installed package glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 is already installed file /usr/share/doc/glibc-2.12.90/NEWS from install of glibc-2.12.90-17.i686 conflicts with file from package glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 file /usr/share/doc/glibc-2.12.90/NEWS conflicts between attempted installs of glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 and glibc-2.12.90-17.i686 Error Summary It seems my rpmdb is somewhat fubard? /jnvilo
