Interesting. I had tried to replicate the problem here, and rpm
wouldn't let me:
$ sudo rpm -e glibc-common
error: Failed dependencies:
glibc-common = 2.4-8 is needed by (installed) glibc-2.4-8.i686
/usr/bin/gencat is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-3.0-9.2.i386
/usr/bin/getconf is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-3.0-9.2.i386
/usr/bin/iconv is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-3.0-9.2.i386
/usr/bin/locale is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-3.0-9.2.i386
/usr/bin/localedef is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-3.0-9.2.i386
$
Of course I could have overridden that with --nodeps, but that's not the
point. What surprises me is that the installer would allow installation
to proceed without a package that core packages are marked as dependent
on. ISTM that's an installer bug; you ought to file a bug report about
it with Red Hat. (I would, but you have the evidence in the form of the
log file, so you should do it.)
