Hi,
Today I ran into a problem with libcurl dependency conflict on Ubuntu 18.04, where applications such as R will install libcurl4 and remove libcurl3 which is a dependency of Risk of Rain.
I found a useful PPA which is a patched libcurl4 that handles calls to libcurl3.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xapienz/curl34
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libcurl4
Then in place of the libcurl3:i386 as instructed on GoG's Risk of Rain page, use sudo apt install libcurl4:i386
Risk of Rain should then launch and any other software that depends on libcurl4 can carry on as normal.
I don't know if this is useful to anybody else, but I thought I would leave it here for reference.
