Following Feigin and Fuchs, we compute the first cohomology of the Lie superalgebra $\mathcal{K}(1)$ of contact vector fields on the (1,1)-dimensional real superspace with coefficients in the superspace of linear differential operators acting on the superspaces of weighted densities. We also compute the same, but $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$-relative, cohomology. We explicitly give 1-cocycles spanning these cohomology. We classify generic formal $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$-trivial deformations of the $\mathcal{K}(1)$-module structure on the superspaces of symbols of differential operators. We prove that any generic formal $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$-trivial deformation of this $\mathcal{K}(1)$-module is equivalent to a polynomial one of degree $\leq4$. This work is the simplest superization of a result by Bouarroudj [On $\mathfrak{sl}$(2)-relative cohomology of the Lie algebra of vector fields and differential operators, J. Nonlinear Math. Phys., no.1, (2007), 112--127]. Further superizations correspond to $\mathfrak{osp}(N|2)$-relative cohomology of the Lie superalgebras of contact vector fields on $1|N$-dimensional superspace.
