[WBEL-users] x64 yum update failing

Hi,

I've got an WBEL4 x64 system that I installed a while back but sat awaiting 
deployment.  I finally decided to start using it today, so first thing I did 
was a yum update.  Unfortunately, yum is crashing on a dependency failure.

[root@phoenix /]# yum update glibc

There is obviously a copy of glibc on the machine - glibc-2.3.4-2 to be 
exact.  What I believe is happening is that there might be 2 copies of it - 
one being the i386 copy and on is the x64 copy.   Although when I check 
using rpm -qi glibc, it doesn't specify which is i386 and which is _x64.  I 
am more than happy to remove the i386 copy, as I believe it is it that is 
causing me these headaches, but not sure how.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Eric
