Title:
  usrmerge failed during upgrade to 22.04 - both /lib64/ld-
  linux-x86-64.so.2 and /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 exist

Status in usrmerge package in Ubuntu:
  New

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/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

    sudo /usr/lib/usrmerge/convert-usrmerge

  
  I guess stuff like this is why even Ubuntu Linux is still only used by software developers (like me) and other technical adventurers.
