Are you sure you have your version numbers right ? glibc lives in the
2.x version-space these days ( and has for many years now )

When looking for RPM's from CentOS and similar distributions, or for
RPM's that can be ported to CentOS and RHEL, http://rpm.pbone.net/ is
your dear, dar friend.

That said, doing an in-place update to glibc-2.6.x is *begging* for
pain. CentOS 6 will have glibc-2.12.x, and a set of compatibility
libraries so older CentOS 5/RHEL 5 tools will work. And if you're in a
rush, you could work with Fedora, which is noticeably ahead of CentOS
and RHEL on most packages, but is not as industry tested and stable.

The signal to noise ratio of this list is getting quite horrible.

From the 2nd post (different thread) by the OP it's quite obvious he's looking
for a package containing the file "libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3".

He already got an answer to that "compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138".

What he didn't get was how you find that kind of information.

pbone.net is certainly _NOT_ the way to find a package for your CentOS-5. yum
search/provides on the system itself is the way to go.

# yum provides libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
...
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386 : Compatibility 2.96-RH standard C++
: libraries
Repo : base
Matched from:
Other : libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

If you have an RPM package with unmet dependencies, the way to install
it is:

yum localinstall <packagename>

Yum will resolve the dependencies using the available repositories.
