but this is not the answer either.  you can not --nodeps the rpm
installation
or it will fail the next time it is used because it does not have the
correct
version of glibc.  You can --nodeps the glibc upgrade but does anyone know
if
rpm of version less then 4.0 will work with the new glibc.  I doubt it.  Has
anyone really solved this problem.  Newbes back off.

what i saw was he was trying to "install" a rpm, where upgrading the rpm not
installing it might be a better choice. thats all. no need to insult me.
jerk.
