This same problem happened to me. I had some of my distro's packages
installed and had symbol problems, which is how I knew to check the
shared libs.

Somewhere, pybombs does not seem to get the link location correct.

I can only echo the comment that you should not manually remove that
file. Use your distro's packaging utility to remove the whole package.
There might be other problems waiting to pounce on you.
