Indeed, most of the packages had missing files. I've downloaded all the updates to install. One more question. I have an athlon xp processor. None of the affected packages have an athlon specific version, but glibc and openssl have both i686 and i386 packages. Should I install from the i686 packages?
You can check the versions installed by running rpm -q openssl --qf "%{ARCH}\n" For an athlon, I would expect you to be using the i686 packages. But you definitely don't want to upgrade an i686 glibc package to an i386 one, because an oversight in the packaging is likely to leave you with an unusable system.
