Corrections to make this a little easier:

  yum localupdate openssl*-1.0.1e-38.fc19.x86_64.rpm

  yum localupdate openssl*-1.0.1e-38.fc20.x86_64.rpm


Also, keep in mind that if you have multilib packages installed, you
may need to omit the --arch options above and do something like `yum
localupdate openssl*rpm` instead to grab and update the additional
packages.
