Downgrade to
 glibc-common-2.14.90-14.x86_64                               
 glibc-2.14.90-14.x86_64   
to fix the problem

Comment 1 Sammy 2011-11-16 13:46:52 UTC
Yes... and somehow these are pulled out of testing. But it seems like
the effect continues even after the downgrace....is there a prelink
or something one has to do?

Comment 2 yunustj 2011-11-16 14:39:35 UTC
After downgrading to glibc-2.14.90-14.x86_64, I have not encountered the problem yet.

This is newly installed system from Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-Desktop. I missed to check that. but as far as I remember:
1. performed full update
2. installed vlc from rpmfusion
3. installed xen
4. booted to xen mode
5. performed full update again which lead me to broken glibc-2.14.90-16.x86_64 
6. booted to xen mode again
7. ran firefox in xen mode fedora system but the firefox crash
8. booted to normal fedora system
9. and found that 'yum update', PackageKit, firefox, Evolution and Empaty keep crashing when I tried to launch them
10. and found that 'yum downgrade glibc' still works which save me to fix this problem.
