Based on your error I suspect you may be installing RStudio for the wrong OS version.

Can you please check the output of

cat /etc/os-release

and see if it really says (amongst other things) UBUNTU_CODENAME=jammy ? If not, I would recommend downloading the respective DEB package for your linux distribution which should fix the issue.

Do you have the libssl-dev system package installed?
