Hello Guys,
Recently, I have installed some custom packaged of glibc in servers I
manage due to vulnerabilities. At that time, official centos packages
were not available. Now, I want to roll back to centos versions.
=====================================
-bash-3.2# yum info glibc
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* addons: yum.singlehop.com
* base: yum.singlehop.com
* extras: mirrors.netdna.com
* rpmforge: apt.sw.be
* updates: yum.singlehop.com

: multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and
: memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is

: contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the
standard C
: library and the standard math library. Without these two
libraries, a

=====================================
I tried a lot of options. "yum downgrade" is attempting to remove lot
of packages which I can't afford. Yum install is hitting dependency
errors.
Is there a way out ? Thanks in advance for any help/advice any one could offer.
