You'll need to update the x86_64 version to the same version of the
32-bit package you're trying to install. So either run

# yum update
followed by
# yum install glibc.i686

or, to update just the 64-bit glibc package run

# yum install glibc.i686 glibc.x86_64

thanks, I should mention that I have tried the following already:

yum update [goes just fine and no new updates needed to be done]
yum *install glibc.i686


and I get:

Transaction Check Error:
* file /usr/share/doc/glibc-2.12.90/NEWS from install of glibc-2.12.90-19.i686 conflicts with file from package glibc-2.12.90-17.x86_64


and doing : yum upgrade glibc


gives:

Transaction Check Error:
* package glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 (which is newer than glibc-2.12.90-17.i686) is already installed

* file /usr/share/doc/glibc-2.12.90/NEWS conflicts between attempted installs of glibc-2.12.90-19.x86_64 and glibc-2.12.90-17.i686

Yeah, that would have cleaned this up more nicely.

Now you can do:

package-cleanup --cleandupes

and it should remove the older, duplicate packages for you.
then your glibc install should work hopefully.

package-cleanup did not help either.* I reinstalled and works fine now. Nonetheless thanks a lot for helping me troubleshoot this. It must have been the crash in the first big yum update that messed things up for me.
