ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The crazy thing is, it was working when I originally installed it. Then it just
stopped for the aforementioned reason. That's when I tried removing /
reinstalling it. The only modifications I've made to this OS are regularly
installing the updates when they appear.
The snap version works because presumably the dependencies are packaged with
the snap (but here I have problems with permissions).
