Hmm. No idea why this works, but I was able to pull the repo, build, and copy target/debug/cargo-edit-locally to /home/fred/.cargo/bin/.

Seems to be a common issue on Ubuntu 20.04 because the OpenSSL crate dependency is vastly out of date. See this thread.

This seems to be the result of a transitive dependency from the curl and git2 crates. Note that master no longer has this issue, it's just the version published on crates.io. Can this crate be re-published with a new revision bump since it appears that the fix is already applied on the master branch?

First time in my life that Debian stable was too new for whatever I wanted to install...

cargo install --git https://github.com/k0nserv/cargo-edit-locally.git

works
