package glibc version

Hi,

I have one strange problem (at least for me, as I'm newbie in arch)
I tried to install flashplugin, and during the installation according to wiki I got this error in pacman:

missing dependency for lib32-glibc : glibc>=2.12.1

Ok, I can easily update this. pacman -Syu ... and - everything up to date. In the Packages section I have found http://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/glibc/, which says that glibc should be in version 2.12.1-1 but I still have 2.12-4
I tried to find if glibc is not in ignored packages and everything, but nothing helps.
Any idea how to tell pacman there IS new version of the glibc?

[root@stoka dnf]# pacman -Sy glibc
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
