[Bug 1869127] Re: after upgrade uuidgen crashes, complaining about version of libuuid.1

[Sebastien Bacher]

Thank you for your bug report, unsure what's going on there
what is the output of 
$ md5sum /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libuuid.so.1

I just tried on a new 19.10 instance

$ dpkg -l | grep uuid
ii  libuuid1:amd64                 2.34-0.1ubuntu2.4                   amd64        Universally Unique ID library
ii  uuid-runtime                   2.34-0.1ubuntu2.4                   amd64        runtime components for the Universally Unique ID library

$ md5sum /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libuuid.so.1

$ uuidgen

$ ldd -v `which uuidgen`
