The dependency in question is one that's auto-generated during the package
build, so the only way Devrim could change this is by downgrading the
package he builds against.

Having said that, though, I'm pretty confused as to what's happening.
The original complaint claimed that libssl.so.10 and libcrypto.so.10
weren't present, but I see those both on my current machine and in
a backup from a couple months ago (when I still had
openssl-1.0.0-27.el6_4.2.x86_64 installed). So it's far from apparent
what it is that the PGDG RPM is depending on that wouldn't be there.
