Bug Description
This was a very obscure error during upgrade from one LTS release to another.
I finally (apparently) fixed it by running:
sudo ln -s -f /usr/lib64/
sudo /usr/lib/
I guess stuff like this is why even Ubuntu Linux is still only used by software developers (like me) and other technical adventurers.
