You have the glibc 2.0 libc.so.6 These packages (apparently from rawhide)
require the glibc 2.1 libc. You need to grab the ones we
built for 5.2 - ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/gnome-1.0/redhat.
(or more likely, a mirror)

Yes, what it is saying that it doesn't want to upgrade the
the GLib package because it will remove this library which
is needed by a number of things on your system. Grab glib10
and gtk+10 RPM's from the same place.
