Ubuntu: libfl.so.2 error

error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2: invalid ELF header

if you see this error in Ubuntu you need to do the following:

• download this file: libfl.so.2
• copy it to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2 and overwrite the existing file(you need root for that)
