Nothing. I think this more likely is a consequence of your platform
switch from Fedora to Ubuntu. I'm not sure how the dynamic linker's
search path is defined on Ubuntu, but it might be different. Or
possibly it's the same but you forgot about making an /etc/ld.so.conf.d
entry on the new machine, or didn't run ldconfig afterwards.
