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

[Tim De Pauw]

Confirming that this seems to fix slack-desktop for now:

$ wget https://downloads.slack-edge.com/linux_releases/slack-desktop-3.1.0-amd64.deb
$ dpkg-deb -R slack-desktop-3.0.1-amd64.deb slack
$ vim slack/DEBIAN/control  # and replace libcurl3 with libcurl4
$ dpkg-deb -b slack slack.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i slack.deb

which also means that the Slack team should be able to put out a new
version pretty quickly.

Still, if there's a way for libcurl3 and libcurl4 to coexist, that'll
also solve a bunch of issues.

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?
