        glibc-common = 2.5-81 is needed by (installed) glibc-2.5-81.i686
what's the problem here? I just could not figure out what's wrong

thanks

First of all Oracle Linux 5 is at Update 11.
Secondly its EOL is March 2017 so ensure you should be using 5 and not 6.
Third you should not be using low level tools like 'rpm' (you will know when you really need it) but use the high level package management tools, which in your case means YUM.
Fourth, when you post diagnostic nfo then also post the actual commands you encountered problems with and their respective stdout + stderr output.
