Same problem I mentioned in my mail on updating 9.0 -> 9.1 using urpmi --auto-select. I found that, while rpm -Uvh <rpm> didn't work after updating glibc, urpmi <rpm> did. Hopefully all the packages in 9.2 will upgrade properly from their 9.1 equivalents so this kind of problem no longer happens... -- adamw
