Hi,

I tried to update my system using up2date -u and go t the error Unresolvable
chain of dependencies: openssl-devel-0.9.6-9 requires openssl-0.9.6-9

Then I checked out trying to install openssl-0.9.6-9 by using a test install
rpm -i --test openssl-0.9.6-9.i386.rpm and get 'file /usr/bin/openssl from
install of openssl-0.9.6-9 conflicts with file from package
openssl-0.9.5a-14' - there are many of these conflicts.

So I tested a removal of openssl-0.9.5a-14 using rpm -e --test
openssl-0.9.5a-14 and get the following errors:

error: removing these packages would break dependencies
        openssl >= 0.9.5a is needed by openssh-2.3.0p1-4

        libssl.so.0 is needed by fetchmail-5.5.0-3
        libssl.so.0 is needed by pine-4.30-2

I administer my machine remotely using ssh (which due to security issues
must be upgraded). I would very much like to be able to update my system
but this looks as if it would be a major problem if I delete
openssl-0.9.5a-14.

What should I do at this point?

Thanks and regards,

Reg Walsh
