Oh, sh....
I am an idiot:

/snap/evince/current/usr/libexec/evinced
/snap/evince/current/usr/libexec/evinced: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: 
version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by 
/snap/evince/current/usr/libexec/evinced)


End of game. My Ubuntu version is simply too old.

Sorry for the noise.

Should have checked this myself.

Sorry again.
