I'm trying to install nginx (Debian 7, amd64):

apt-get install nginx

But I get an error:

nginx : Depends: libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8m-1) but it is not installable

I downloaded the deb and install it:

wget http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110406T213352Z/pool/main/o/openssl098/libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7_i386.deb

But this has no effect. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
