No se puede instalar npm: ¿no puede corregir los problemas, ha retenido paquetes rotos?

Estoy tratando de actualizar mi nodejs a 7.6 pero fallé. Ahora tengo un nuevo problema después de reinstalar el nodo 6.10:

$ sudo apt-get purge nodejs npm
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package 'npm' is not installed, so not removed
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  linux-headers-4.8.0-40 linux-headers-4.8.0-40-generic linux-image-4.8.0-40-generic linux-image-extra-4.8.0-40-generic
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED
  nodejs*
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 1 to remove and 53 not to upgrade.
After this operation, 51.7 MB disk space will be freed.

¿Por qué dice eso Package 'npm' is not installed, so not removed? ¡He estado usando npm para instalar muchos paquetes de nodos para mis proyectos!

Ignoro el error y seguí instalando el nodo 7.6:

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.6 | sudo -E bash - 
bash: line 1: html: No such file or directory
bash: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
'ash: line 2: `<head><title>404 Not Found</title></head>

Entonces volví al nodo 6.x. Pero ya no puedo instalar npm:

$ sudo apt-get install npm

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

apt 16.10 nodejs npm laukok

por favor intente esto sudo apt install -f, luego intente instalar de nuevo!

Tuve el mismo problema con npm y tuve que instalar los siguientes paquetes en orden:

sudo apt install libssl1.0-dev
sudo apt install nodejs-dev
sudo apt install node-gyp
sudo apt install npm

Espero que esto ayude

He estado luchando con esto durante un par de horas y funcionó a las mil maravillas. ¡Gracias!

(En Kubuntu 18.04) Había instalado previamente libssl-dev, que resulta corresponder a libssl1.1, pero aparentemente npm requiere 1.0. Tuve que eliminar libssl-dev y reemplazarlo con libssl1.0-dev, y todo funcionó bien. Los errores de apt no fueron útiles para determinar qué estaba mal, por lo que su respuesta fue un salvavidas.

¡Sí! ¡Gracias! (Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS)
