Hi there,

I don't know exactly what happened but surprisingly ssh doesn't work 
anymore on my pc:

ssh: symbol lookup error: ssh: undefined symbol: FIPS_mode

Neither does yum:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 49, in ?
    import config
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 27, in ?
    from parser import ConfigPreProcessor
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/parser.py", line 3, in ?
    import urlgrabber
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/__init__.py", line 
53, in ?
    from grabber import urlgrab, urlopen, urlread
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 
412, in ?
    import keepalive
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/keepalive.py", line 
339, in ?
    class HTTPSHandler(KeepAliveHandler, urllib2.HTTPSHandler):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTTPSHandler'

Are both problems related? Did I unintentionally remove any important file?

I hopped that upgrading to SL 5.3 (from the DVDs as yum doesn't work) 
would fix the problem but it is still there.

Any idea?

Thanks
F
