Bug Description

The Biber version installed from the repos is 2.9, which is incompatible with the version of Biblatex installed by the Texlive package (Biblatex 3.10). The required version of Biber is 2.10, any other version will not work.. now I can't compile any of my documents after updating to Bionic Beaver :(

Steps to reproduce:

Compile any document that have bibliografies using the command:

\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}
