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

[László Zsolt Nagy]

I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 because I thought it must already be
stable. Then I had to find out that it is impossible to run node js 11
and mongodb 4 on the same system, just because node js 11 depends on
libcurl4 and mongodb-org 4 depends on libcurl3, and they cannot coexist.
Come on, this bug has been here for more than 6 months now! I don't have
a choice but to select a different distribution. :-(

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?
