Can you please tell me which debian package has this file?

libssl0.9.8 (or you need libssl-dev)

$ dpkg -S libcrypto.so
libssl-dev: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so
libssl0.9.8: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

libcrypto.so is a symlink to libcrypto.so.0.9.8

The web server with apache is running on a different server, so I do not want
to install apache again. I checked all the available packages, and I still can

libcrypto is in the libssl package. Install libssl0.9.8 and you should be
ok. However, as it is "Priority: important" you should already have it.
