Openssl is already installed because of other programs that need it.
So, i cannot remove it and reinstall  due to the 100s dependencies it
has.
And I already have openssl, why is yum trying to instal it again?

[root at centos asterisk]# rpm -qa | grep ssl
openssl-0.9.7a-43.8
openssl-devel-0.9.7a-43.8
xmlsec1-openssl-1.2.6-3
