libssl10.9.8 provides libcrypto in

/usr/lib/i486/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/usr/lib/i586/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/usr/lib/i686/cmov/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

and all of these are present on my system.

address@hidden:~/dv$ ls -l /usr/lib/i486/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 
/usr/lib/i586/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

I agree.  The question is, what's up with that?
