I think even the upgrade mode of the installation CD should do(someone
please verify)
And that would be easier than identifying and deleting individual files
like this
rpm -q --filesbypkg `rpm -qa | grep glibc`| awk '{print $2}' | tr -s
"\n" "\t"> /tmp/glibcfiles
rm -rf `cat /tmp/glibcfiles`
And then upgrading
cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS
export $NEWPATH=/mnt/sysimage ( i think )
rpm --oldpackage ‐‐prefix $NEWPATH -ivh glib* ( Check the order of
arguments)
