Re: required glibc-common = 2.12-1.25.el6 vs installed glibc-common-2.12-1.25.el6_1.3.x86_64

Ended up being:

yum --enablerepo=sl-fastbugs install gcc

However, your solution worked perfectly!

Thanks a ton!

You need to enable the "fastbugs" repo as it seems you have installed the
glibc from that repo .  The "fastbugs" repo has  glibc-2.12-1.25.el6_1.3 and
the "standard" repo has glibc-2.12-1.25.el6 .

    yum --enablerepo=fastbugs install gcc

This will enable the fastbugs repo which has the glibc versions that you
have installed already.
