Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS Focal

In Ubunto release 20.04 they have removed a package name libffi.so.6 and upgraded it with version libffi.so.7

This means PyFunceble will trow an error like:

ImportError: libffi.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The fix for this issue is then rather simple, add a softlink between the versions with ln -s

The complete line in my case was:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libffi.so.7 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libffi.so.6

However, the right way to do this is by first locate where your’s libffi.so.7 is by

find /usr/lib/ -type f -iname 'libffi.so.*' and then apply the softlink to libffi.so.7
