Hello Robert,

Are you excluding any packages within your yum.conf?  Sometimes that can
create some confusion.   Here is an example with openssh on a test box:

The output of 'yum search' will show excluded items, but you can not install them or upgrade them unless '--disableexcludes=' is used.   This had lead to frustration many times for me.

Title:
  WL: OpenSSL 1.0.1 or greater

Status in IUS Community Project:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Would be great to see OpenSSL 1.0.1 or greater added to the repo.

  CentOS 6 shipped with 1.0, however 1.0.1 has some significant changes
  that are needed by many things including SPDY in web servers (Next
  Protocol Negotiation TLS).  Over the course of CentOS 6's live it's
  becoming increasingly important.
