Or maybe this is a problem with rpm?

openssh-server depends on openssh
openssh depends on openssl

try totally removing the openssl and openssh* packages, and then:
rpm -iv openss*.rpm
(since the exapntion of the '*' is in alphabetical order openssl will be
listed last).

Notice that you get:
openssl-<version>-<release>
only after the the installation of the openssh-server package (which
requires openssl to properly execute its post-install script).

Until this is fixed the workaround is to manually execute the post-install
script of the openssh-server, or to remove it and reinstall it.

This is what happened to me two times when I installed the crypto packages
on two machines manually, and this is what happens when I add those
packages to the install CD.
