SUSE 11 SP4 comes with glibc version 2.11.3. For my application I require glibc version higher than that. SUSE 12 comes with glibc version 2.19.x. I loaded SUSE 12 disk in my machine and found the glibc-2.19 rpm. But when I try to install it gives the below error

So, to resolve these conflicts, I thought of removing the currently installed glibc. I used the below command to do that.
zypper remove glibc
This commands gives me the below warning:
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Resolving package dependencies...
Problem: This request will break your system!
conflicting requests
Solution 1: ignore the warning of a broken system (requires:glibc)
Solution 2: keep glibc-2.11.3-17.84.1.x86_64
Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c] (c):
If I select 1, again the same message comes.
My application needs to be on SUSE 11, so I can't use SUSE 12. Is there any way to upgrade the glibc ?
