greeting.
a short while ago, i may have gone to a site i should not have. maybe.
after visiting, i decided i would check for rpm updates.
when yumex opened to available packages, it showed that;
openssl.x86_64 0:1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4
was available, so i checked it, then clicked install button. during log display, i got error message, tried again. still got error.
seems that there is a 'protected' problem.
text from log is at filefactory;
http://www.filefactory.com/file/6x8rzrxmx8vx/yumex-error--openssl.2016-0301-...
tried a couple check at cli, it failed. then i tried a few more things that maybe i should not have.

during all this, i decided to open vlc to play some relaxing music. not.
icon for vlc was no longer in my desktop top panel and reason the attempt to install vlc with yumex.
not aware of what all is happening, i closed yumex. mistake.
now, when i try to start yumex from panel icon, nothing.
starting yumex from cli, i get this;
~]$ yumex Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yumex", line 25, in <module> from yumexgui import YumexApplication File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yumexgui/__init__.py", line 34, in <module> from yumexgui.gui import Notebook, PackageInfo, CompletedEntry, YumexStatusIcon File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yumexgui/gui.py", line 30, in <module> from yumexbase.constants import * File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yumexbase/constants.py", line 35, in <module> from yum.constants import * File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 53, in <module> import config File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 30, in <module> from parser import ConfigPreProcessor, varReplace File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yum/parser.py", line 4, in <module> import urlgrabber File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/urlgrabber/__init__.py", line 54, in <module> from grabber import urlgrab, urlopen, urlread File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 422, in <module> import urllib2 File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/urllib2.py", line 93, in <module> import hashlib File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/hashlib.py", line 88, in <module> import _hashlib ImportError: libssl.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
decided to try starting vlc from cli;
~]$ vlc bash: vlc: command not found
presuming that vlc starts from a diff command, i tried to open kde menu, it will not open.
i am now at a loss of what all has been removed and need help getting things back.
thanks in advance for any and all help.
