Cannot install libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686.rpm on OEL 6.8

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to install libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686.rpm on OEL 6.8 but it says newer version of this package is already installed.

[root@isoft Downloads]# rpm -ivh libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686.rpm

warning: libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 192a7d7d: NOKEY

        package libstdc++-4.4.7-17.el6.x86_64 (which is newer than libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686) is already installed

[root@isoft gen]# yum install libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686

--> Finished Dependency Resolution

Error:  Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root

       cause is something else and multilib version checking is just

       pointing out that there is a problem. Eg.:

         1. You have an upgrade for libstdc++ which is missing some

            dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to

            solve this by installing an older version of libstdc++ of the

            different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture

            yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package

            requires what). You can try redoing the upgrade with

            --exclude libstdc++.otherarch ... this should give you an error

            message showing the root cause of the problem.

         2. You have multiple architectures of libstdc++ installed, but

            yum can only see an upgrade for one of those arcitectures.

            If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you

            can remove the one with the missing update and everything

            will work.

         3. You have duplicate versions of libstdc++ installed already.

            You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors.

       ...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove

       this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to

       do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing

       much more problems).

       Protected multilib versions: libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.i686 != libstdc++-4.4.7-17.el6.x86_64

[root@isoft gen]#

I cannot even uninstall libstdc++-4.4.7-17.el6.x86_64 and it says failed dependencies.

anyone has insights to resolve this error. Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
