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

[David Dombrowsky]

Here's what I did to "solve" it on 18.04

{{{
git clone https://github.com/curl/curl.git
cd curl
git checkout curl-7_58_0
autoreconf -i
sudo mkdir /opt/curl
./configure --prefix=/opt/curl
make
sudo make install
ln -s /opt/curl/bin/curl* /usr/local/bin/
}}}

Of course, that doesn't really fix anything, but it gets a compatible
version of curl on to this system.

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
  mongodb

  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?
