I have a feeling it is looking for glibc 2.0 while I would guess
perhaps your version is 2.1
You can check this by doing 'rpm -q libc'.
On my (SuSE 6.3) system this gives:
libc-2.1.2-24
So I'm using 2.1.
If this is what your problem is you can either:
a) use the --nodeps option to rpm (don't know how to do this from COAS as
I haven't used it)
or
b) Install glibc version 2.0 from your CD, if it exists. It should in
theory sit side-by-side with 2.1 and work.
Personally I'd just install with --nodeps (= ignore dependencies).
I have installed a few packages that claim to need 2.0 but work
fine with 2.1.
