try upgrading openssl first then upgrade openssh. You might want to check for things that depend on openssl and make sure they're all dynamically linked first. # find what RPMS require openssl rpm -q --whatrequires openssl lynx stunnel curl-ssl openssl-devel etc... # verify binaries are dynamically linked ldd /usr/bin/lynx ldd /usr/sbin/stunnel etc... You're looking for lines like this: libssl.so.0 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.0 (0x00000000) libcrypto.so.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 (0x00000000) If they're all dynamically linked, they should still work after you upgrade openssl. If the latest openssl won't compile you could try the 0.9.6x series, I think 0.9.6j was the latest.
