Public bug reported:

With Bionic (18.04), libcurl4 is the standard, libcurl3 seems to be a
compatibility library.

However, libcurl3 and libcurl4 can not be installed together, presumably
because of some obscure dependencies in the packages. These dependencies
are, however, unneccessary, because the shared libraries have different
names.

Alas, since the package curl itself relies on libcurl4, installing
libcurl3 removes curl. For example, installing Domoticz and other
external tools need libcurl3 and thus remove curl support.

If the dependencies between libcurl3 and 4 were corrected in Bionic,
this could easily be fixed.
