latest i386 cmd_rpms and RedHat 7.3



Pardon me if this has been dealt with previously--

The i386 xfs progs seem to require a newer glibc, like that available on 
RedHat 8?

error: failed dependencies:
         libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by attr-2.1.1-0
         libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by xfsdump-2.2.4-0
         libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by xfsprogs-2.3.6-0

Should I be updating my hundreds of machines to get this (not interested 
at this point due to production demands), or are my current versions 
considered nominally good for use with 2.4.20 and latest cvs snapshot 
kernel patches?  Currently using:

attr-2.0.11-0.i386.rpm
xfsdump-2.2.1-0.i386.rpm
xfsprogs-2.3.3-0.i386.rpm


Hey--xfs has come a long way this year.  Around May timeframe, we were 
losing a disk or two a day to xfs log corruption when workstations would 
crash (using A|W Maya).  That data loss simply is not happening any more 
for us.  Perhaps I don't need to update anything, but I'd like to have a 
few development machines to continually test things out, of course.
