Can't get revisor to give me a separate yum log at the moment, but I
managed to get yum into high-debug mode. So the messages are mixed
between revisor and yum, but it seems to make sense:

It definitely sees 2.8-8, and I can't spot anything that calls
glibc-2.8-3 *except* that there's a mention of it being included "from
