libc.so.6 in 13.2.1

Installed 13.2.1 and an application named aos. In gnome terminal, came to this.

[olpc@xo-53-1d-bb ~]$ aos
Unix.Dlopen: loading library libc.so.6 failed
 ...
[olpc@xo-53-1d-bb ~]$ su
bash-4.2# yum provides libc.so.6
glibc-2.16-24.fc18.i686 : The GNU libc libraries
Repo        : fedora
Matched from:
Provides    : libc.so.6

glibc-2.16-34.fc18.i686 : The GNU libc libraries
Repo        : updates

glibc-2.16-34.fc18.i686 : The GNU libc libraries
Repo        : @updates
Matched from:
Provides    : libc.so.6

bash-4.2# yum install glibc-2.16-34.fc18.i686
Package glibc-2.16-34.fc18.i686 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

Conclusion: an application claims libc.so.6 is absent; yum claims it is present.

For reference, no such problem in OLPC 13.2.0 or in Debian Wheezy.
