Is this normal?
They're nothing to be worried about then. Here's briefly what's going on. You are attempting to install a couple of packages. RPM looks at the first one and finds out that it requires glibc-2.3.2 in order to function, so RPM adds "glibc = 2.3.2" to it's dependency stack. Then another package comes along which only requires "glibc <= 2" Since this is a more general requirement, but isn't in conflict with the first glibc requirement, RPM replaces the "glibc = 2.3.2" requirement with "glibc <= 2" and prints out a message that the change has been made.
Uhm, I think you missed the unfortunate linewrap in the OP. RPM is reporting:
warning: package glibc = 2.3.2-101 was already added, replacing with glibc <= 2.3.2-101
My guess is the OP is trying to install the 2.3.2-101 glibc RPM when in
fact it's allready installed.
For your future installs though, it's a lot better to update packages instead of using -i for installing. This way older packages will be replaced with new ones, you'll get an error if you try upgrading to a package that's allready there, and packages that are not in your installation at all will be installed as if rpm -i was used.
The command 'rpm -Uvh <your packages>' will give you some nice output wrt. what's going on.
