A while ago someone posted this method which seems to work well enough
and takes care of the dependencies without installing needless *-dev
options.  Basically you need to create the koji repo file and then use
yum to download the needed rpms automatically.

/etc/yum.repos.d/koji.repo:

[koji]
name=Koji Repo
baseurl=http://koji.fedoraproject.org/repos/f$releasever-build/latest/$basearch/
enabled=0
skip_if_unavailable=1
gpgcheck=0

and then run:

    yum install openssl --enablerepo=updates-testing,koji
