Bug Description

On a brand new Ubuntu 22.04 server, running:
sudo apt install curl libcurl4-openssl-dev
will install curl version "7.81.0-1ubuntu1.11" and libcurl4-openssl-dev version "7.81.0-1ubuntu1.11".

Installing libcurl4-openssl-dev version "7.81.0-1ubuntu1.11" breaks curl. Once that package is installed, curl no longer works against https endpoints. For example:
# curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com
curl: (60) SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'raw.githubusercontent.com'
More details here: https://curl.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.

This problem is not exhibited in the previous version, "7.81.0-1ubuntu1.10".

The workaround suggested in the original post on the curl website is not working.

Has anyone else got it to work?
