*sigh*

unicorn:~$ apt-get -s install libssl-dev
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
      apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
      Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
      so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Suggested packages:
  libssl-doc
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libssl-dev
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Inst libssl-dev (1.1.1k-1+deb11u1 Debian:11.2/stable, Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])
Conf libssl-dev (1.1.1k-1+deb11u1 Debian:11.2/stable, Debian-Security:11/stable-security [amd64])


Instead of asking us, "Hey guys, I'm trying to install openssl-dev, but
there's no package by that name.  What's the correct name in Debian?" you
just jump to the conclusion that the "repo has missing -dev packages".

This is part of the reason why you keep having problems, I suspect.
