Broken apt system prevents running wireshark












0















I have trouble running wireshark:



$ wireshark
wireshark: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Widgets.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory



According to Ubuntu, that library is in libqt5widgets5



That package is installed in my system:



$ dpkg-query -L libqt5widgets5
/.
/usr
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5.9.5
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/libqt5widgets5
/usr/share/doc/libqt5widgets5/copyright
/usr/share/lintian
/usr/share/lintian/overrides
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/libqt5widgets5
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5.9
/usr/share/doc/libqt5widgets5/changelog.Debian.gz


But it seems broken?



$ ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5.9.5
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5.9.5': No such file or directory


Why could this be? What are my options?
