Ups, true. Red Hat Rawhide rpms should be used with care (Rawhide = bleeding 
edge). AFAIK  libpcap-0.6.2-3.i386.rpm doesn't require a particular tcpdump 
version, but the Rawhide version ("pekkas version") is mentionend in the 
changelog.

For what it is worth; openssl-0.9.6-3 (libcrypto.so.1 & libssl.so.1) (std. on 
RH 7.1) and  openssl-0.9.6a-3 (libcrypto.so.2 &  libssl.so.2) (Rawhide) seems 
to co-exist on my box..
List of programs on my box who needs libcrypto.so.2 and  libssl.so.2:
libcrypto.so.2   is needed by auth_ldap-1.4.8-1
libcrypto.so.2   is needed by tcpdump-3.6.2-3
libcrypto.so.2   is needed by kdebase-2.2-0.alpha2.2
libcrypto.so.2   is needed by ethereal-0.8.18-2
libcrypto.so.2   is needed by ethereal-gnome-0.8.18-2
libssl.so.2   is needed by auth_ldap-1.4.8-1
libssl.so.2   is needed by kdebase-2.2-0.alpha2.2

Ethereal runs fine too.
