It depends on the dependencies. You're far more likely to have problems
with libc or rpm than you are with the kernel. This is for my 7.2
system:
[ewilts@linux1 ewilts]$ rpm -q openssh
openssh-2.9p2-1
[ewilts@linux1 ewilts]$ rpm -q openssh --requires
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1
initscripts >= 5.20
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
ld-linux.so.2
libcrypto.so.2
libc.so.6
libdl.so.2
libnsl.so.1
libpam.so.0
libutil.so.1
libz.so.1
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3)
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2)
