thanks.

this worked for me.

I have another linux partition installed so I  booted into the other
partition, manually installed the contents of the new libcrypt1 .deb (it
is only a lib and a link). The deb was already in the cache from the
failed update.

Rebooted back into focal. I could now login. sudo worked again too. 
To tidy up, ran:
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt-get update

All seems good for now.
