[Bug 2008846] Re: package libssl3:amd64 3.0.2-0ubuntu1.8 failed to install/upgrade: installed libssl3:amd64 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

Thanks Adrien, that feels less worrying than I initially thought.
Yesterday I missed an unattended-upgrades that's been running since
March. Oof.

I honestly don't know what to suggest to Derek; killing those processes
feels like a good idea, since there's no terminal available to interact
with debconf, and sooner or later the consequences of that are going to
have to be faced. It's probably enough to kill it, and then do:

sudo apt install -f
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

by hand afterwards, that'd probably get to a happy place. But I'm not
confident.

I like the idea of removing / pruning / moving the openssl maintainer
scripts; a lot of it feels like it was made for a previous world. And
it's certainly fragile, I see enough of these bug reports, too.

Thanks
