That's correct. I forgot the -s in the email. I've also found that often times after an RPM install of some packages, the libraries like to go back to their original state. That means after the RPM install you can't do a listing (ls) on the directory. I now have a little shell script that copies and links the correct libraries which I run in such circumstances and gets things working again.
Also the tip on setarch i386 linux .... has worked for me. The UMLs now think they are i686s instead of x86_64s, so the YUM hack is no longer required. I've also found it is quite difficult to get the glibc and friends to update. I've actually trashed quite a few of my UMLs trying to figure out a strategy to acheive this. I've even tried updating the file system from the host, which has the wierd side effect of making YUM (inside the UML) think that it's the wrong version of itself (I suspect after YUMming the fs on the x86_64, it copies some files into the YUM repository which are x86_64 specific - or something like that). Needless to say YUM no longer works are adopting this strategy. Haven't sorted this one out yet. i.e. cannot upgrade the glibc stuff in a FC4/UML/i386 running on an FC4/x86_64 host.
