HOWTO : Solve libssl1.1 Installation Problem On Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

Since the current version of libssl1.1 is 1.1.1 on Ubuntu 18.04.2, the previous installed 1.1.0 may caused problem when you are upgrading or updating the system. You need to do the following to solve the problem.

ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep -i libssl

When you see both 1.1.0 and 1.1.1, you need to do the following :

sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/libssl* /tmp

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -y autoclean
sudo apt-get -y autoremove


The problem should be solved.

That's all! See you.


UPDATE
Since Ubuntu has fixed the problem recently, you need to do the following to fix the missing libssl1.1.0.

sudo apt-get --reinstall -y libssl1.1.0
