You cannot do such "piecemeal" updates; especially with such
essential packages as glibc.  You should do

   yum upgrade 'glibc*.x86_64'

instead.

That is what _should_ see if you will attempt what you did
unless depedencies will bring other packages too (but they likely
go the other way around, i.e. if you will try to update glibc
this will grab glibc-common as well).  Still the original error
seems to indicate that something went funny on dependency
resolution.
