Here is the error message I was getting before I added slocate, included here for googlers of the future.

EDIT2: Tar was needed by webmin but not installed, added it byhand to the pre-install process, also added blurb from below about x86_64

EDIT: This seems to be a case of this bug : http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1356
“0001356: Yum installs i386 and x86_64 packages” . I am indeed installing on an x86_64 platform.
Still trying to figure out how to fix the install process.

Me neither. There’s a bug in the CentOS bug tracker about it, but they don’t seem to think it’s a problem. I’m not sure how they can think that it’s not a problem, but they do.
It comes from the fact that there is a 32 bit and a 64 bit version of openssl, and they have some of the same files. They should be installable simultaneously, since the only reason you’d need a 32 bit build is for compatibility with oddball binary only software–which means you’d want the 64 bit package, too, for all of the other stuff that isn’t a binary only build.
Frankly, I don’t know what to do about it. If the CentOS folks don’t want to believe it’s a problem, there’s not a lot I can do to convince them it is. (And if we replaced their packages, it would introduce some new issues.)
In the short-term, you can workaround it by removing “openssl” from the rhdeps variable in install.sh. It’s safe to do so, since you obviously already have openssl installed. (Note that if you didn’t have openssl installed, this error wouldn’t occur.)
Thanks for the fast reply. I removed all occurances of ‘openssl’ from install.sh and I still get the same dependency failure. I’m guessing that it’s still checking this dependency from another related package?
