I'm glad to wait, but it's actually a kind of relief knowing that it's on the way. THANKS, GUYS! mhr

This is great news, I'm sure CentOS will be a great release. My question is will CentOS 5.3 support other architectures again? Namely IA64? I suspect not as I've been waiting since 5.0 for it. Is there are hardware issue, like not having any, that is delaying this? -- James A.

As a result, programs running against the 5.2 glibc can not properly perform shared futex locking against programs running with the 5.3 glibc. This particular error message is a side effect of a package calling rpm as part of its install scripts. The rpm instance performing the upgrade is using the prior glibc throughout the upgrade, but the rpm instance launched from within the script is using the new glibc. To avoid this error, upgrade glibc first in a separate run: # yum update glibc # yum update You will also see this error if you downgrade glibc to an earlier version on an installed 5.3 system. Craig
