Can this not be done?

Create new meta package libcurl
libcurl depends on libcurl3 >= newversion with fix
libcurl depends on libcurl4 >= newversion with fix

libcurl3 removes the hack of having libcurl.so.4
libcurl4 contains a proper libcurl.so.4

They should be able to co-exist at this point.

-----------------

OR Just plain Nuke libcurl4 all together and do a version jump up to
libcurl5.  And merge all libcurl4 code into the libcurl3 package.

-----------------

Because right now this is

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?
