erlang-crypto still depends on libssl1.1 which is absent in Ubuntu 22.04

Now I see, when running `apt show -a erlang-crypto` - there is more then one package version, and in fact, one linked in link above, depends on `libssl3` but every other on `libssl1.1`. The latest version depends on `libssl1.1` - that is why I have this issue.

erlang-crypto last 6 versions list from newest:
Version: 1:24.3.3-1
Version: 1:24.3.2-1
Version: 1:24.3.1-1
Version: 1:24.3-1
Version: 1:24.2.2-1
Version: 1:24.2.1+dfsg-1

Why the latest version doesn't depend on `libssl3`? Why only the 1:24.2.1+dfsg-1 depends on newer `libssl3`?

For diagnostic purposes please provide the full output that you receive for the following commands:

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
apt-cache policy erlang-crypto

Should I run `sudo apt install erlang-crypto=1:24.2.1+dfsg-1`?

If I ever do `sudo apt update` will it automatically update `erlang-crypto` version to latest dependent on `libssl1.1` and break the package that depend on `erlang-crypto`?

Because I have run the rabbitmq-server installation script where I needed to specify the distro name:

"In order to set up an apt repository that provides the correct package, a few decisions have to be made. One is determining the distribution name. It often matches the Debian or Ubuntu release used" https://www.rabbitmq.com/install-debian.html#apt-quick-start-cloudsmith

And the latest supported was focal.

How then should I install `erlang-crypto` package correctly?
Should I run: `sudo apt install erlang-crypto=1:24.2.1+dfsg-1`?

If I ever do `sudo apt update` will it automatically update `erlang-crypto` version to latest dependent on `libssl1.1` and break the `rabbitmq-server` that depend on `erlang-crypto`?

In my opinion rabbitmq might be contacted to request a separate repository for Ubuntu jammy with packages that depend on libssl3

Looking at https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-erlang/deb/ubuntu/dists/jammy/Release they seem to be already working on it, but there are no binary packages available yet.

Thank you Manfred for guiding me to the solution!
I decided to go with distro specific install using / - I have run `sudo apt install erlang-crypto/jammy` and it worked!

Thanks Manfred Hampl, that solved my question.

I haven't tested the solution, was just happy that I managed to install the package. But it turned out that the rest of packages depend on specific `erlang-crypto` package - one from their repositories - so you where right!

It seems that for the time being you have the following options:

- go back to the (older) version in the Ubuntu jammy repositories
- go back to Ubuntu focal and install the rabbitmq version for focal
- wait for rabbitmq that they provide a version that works with Ubuntu jammy

Thanks!

I went with first option, from Ubuntu Jammy repository :)
