Just curious where you got this? It looks like the rawhide version.

I just went through this about an hour ago, for different reasons. The
rawhide rpm has libssl.so.2 and libcrypto.so.2, no *so.1. Not sure if
this is by design, or an oversight. I recreated the symlink that I
think should be there, and everything seems to work. I don't like
doing that kind of thing, but, hey, I needed it since something is
broken in the 7.1 version. The only thing I ran afoul of was so far
ssh not wanting to run. Rebuilding that from src.rpm worked.
