Hello,

I don't understand why it is looking for 2.5-42 as there is 2.5-49 in the repo.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,
The odds are that you have more than one glibc-devel (or some other glibc package) installed, and I mean more than one per arch.

Do an

  rpm -qa | grep glibc | sort


       I have 2.5-49 installed so I wonder why it wants 2.5-42

Just an idea: there is no 2.5-49.i386 in the x86_64 repo?
