        system shipped OpenSSL in Fedore is probably in /usr/bin, /usr/lib 
etc. When installing from source code, default location is /usr/local/...

        run 'which openssl'
        run '/usr/local/bin/openssl version'

        installing a newer version will not help you anyway since system 
commands dependent on OpenSSL will stay dependent on the version shipped 
with the system.

        you cannot copy newer libs over old ones since 0.9.7 branch is not 
binary compatible with 0.9.8 one.
