Dear Maintainer,

Recently I have upgraded from Buster to Bullseye and, among other things, have 
installed libcrypt1 package.
Curiuosly enough, I found out that the symlink that should have been pointing 
to crypto library (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1 -> libcrypto.so.1.1.0) 
pointed to libpthread.so.1 instead since upgrade.
Consequently, no binary linked to libcrypt was able to load; specifically, 
/sbin/sulogin crashed with "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1: version 
`XCRYPT_2.0' not found", and so /bin/login service was unable to operate,
and I basically could not log into my system. I managed to find a way around 
the issue by deleting the symlink by hands and re-linking it properly, but I 
guess that a stable distribution should not behave like that.
When I run apt-get reinstall libcrypt1 the link changes to libpthread.so.1 
again, so it is clearly this package that causes trouble. As for now 
(09/29/2021 2:30 PM GMT) the bug keeps reappearing.
