Update:
The updated package should now be available via yum update openssl\*
. Please do not forget to restart your system after you installed them. The manual installation process described below should not be necessary anymore.
Please be a aware that the instructions to update openssl given for example in
Fedora
Magazine are incomplete. I recommend the following steps (All yum commands
need to run as root, all commands need to be specified on one line):
# Ensure that koji is installed
yum -y install koji
# Download the required packages (these are more RPMs than
# you might need):
# Fedora 19:
koji download-build --key=fb4b18e6 --arch=x86_64 --arch=i686 openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1
# Fedora 20:
koji download-build --key=246110c1 --arch=x86_64 --arch=i686 --arch=armv7hl openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc20.1
# Verify that the RPMs are good, this needs to return lines
# like:
# openssl-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1.i686.rpm: rsa sha1 (md5) pgp md5 OK
# If a line does not contain pgp md5 OK, try to download the
# files again
rpm --checksig *.rpm
# Now get a list of all currently installed openssl
# packages:
yum list installed openssl\*
# This outputs lines starting like:
# openssl-libs.x86_64 1:1.0.1e-37.fc19 @updates
# For each line you need to install a new package, e.g. if
# the line starts with "openssl-libs.x86_64", you need to
# add the file
# openssl-libs-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1.x86_64.rpm
# to the following command:
yum install openssl-libs-1.0.1e-37.fc19.1.x86_64.rpm
# Install all necessary packages at once to avoid dependency
# problems.
# After everything is installed, reboot your system
# (recommended) or restart the necessary programs
# Use needs-restarting to identify these programs:
yum install -y yum-utils
