libssl or libssl-dev metapackage?

[Brylie Christopher Oxley]

Hello,

I am contributing to an install script that relies on libssl. The script 
is currently hard-coding for libssl release numbers and adding 
conditional checks for each published version. I have suggested that we 
instead use the libssl-dev or openssl metapackage. The concern with 
libssl-dev is that there might be experimental releases under that alias.

Is there a libssl alias or some other way to get only stable libssl 
releases?

Kind regards,

Brylie
