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

[Evgeny Brazgin]

@xnox,

I think for bionic it may be possible to port changes from
https://github.com/xapienz/curl-debian-scripts (branch ppa_bionic) into
upstream ubuntu (currently debs are in PPA
https://launchpad.net/~xapienz/+archive/ubuntu/curl34). I can't
guarantee that such constructed binaries will work for all cases, but
during the last 2.5 years I haven't got any complaints from PPA users.

For focal - maybe it is already fixed, but I see that around 900 people
are still using my PPA in focal, so maybe there are some apps which
still require it.

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?
