[Bug 1754294] Re: After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, some apps are removed.

[xapienz]

Another solution for this problem is downloading sources for libcurl4 package (apt-get source libcurl4), modifying "control" file by adding "Provides: libcurl3 (= ${binary:Version})" to libcurl4 section and rebuilding the package. It may also be necessary to add the new version to "changelog", in my case apt couldn't install the new deb right. 
After that, everything mostly works well, except some apps (like virtualbox-5.2), which complain like "version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found", but for virtualbox-5.2 it is solved by installing the package virtualbox.

Title:
  After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, some apps are removed.

Status in curl package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi!

  After last updated libcurl3 on libcurl4, system (Kubuntu 18.04 bionic) deleted such applications as:
  virtualbox-5.2
  opera-stable
  slack-desktop

  I really need these applications, I installed them with broken
  dependencies, but they are deleted after each update. Is it possible
  to make the dependence of the libcurl3 in libcurl4, and not remove it
  altogether from system?
