so I have a little problem. I have a piece of software that requires glibc (libstdc++.i686 is that needs glibc) (32 bit version) that is >= 2.10.90-7. The problem is, CentOS 5.9 only has glibc 2.5 or something like that... I have tried installing everything from RPM's etc, I just keep getting a BUNCH of dependencies errors...

The GLibC in EL should not be updated outside of what the distribution creator provides as it could cause issues with existing software; that software is not runnable on CentOS 5 without recompilation.
