My apologies, I thought my system was RedHat 9. it was kernel
2.4.20-18.7 I did a google on 2.4.20 and it came back with references
to 9.
Seems my assumptions when I got the server years ago was wrong, and it
is indeed 7.3
I've been able to update everything to current packages under 7.3
however in more reading I see this still doesn't cut it.
Could anybody provide any good references for upgrading 7.3 to 9, which
appears what I have to do, however a number of sites I've reviewed
provide some misleading info.

Hi,
I'm following the instructions at
http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legacy/Yum9Detailed to upgrade yum
on my RH9 machine so I can further update the system for glib23 which
I can then use for MySQL 5.1
rpm -Uvh
http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/9/updates/i386/gnupg-1.2.1-9.i386.rpm
is giving me the error
error: failed dependencies:
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3) is needed by gnupg-1.2.1-9
This is effectively where I am stuck, and would like assistance if
this has been experienced before.
Assuming this is glibc23 which is what I want I looked at upgrading
glibc via advisary at
http://fedoralegacy.org/updates/RH9/2005-11-13-FLSA_2005_152848__Updated_glibc_packages_fix_security_issues.html
This seemed to land me in a bigger dependancy hold, attempts to look
at one gave me more dependancies. Which was why I was just prepare to
yum update for everything. It's seems I'm in a circular dependancies.
Any help would be most appreciated.
