Libreoffice 6.0.2.1 execl failed: No such file or directory

Host is ubuntu 18.04 (beta). I was running libreoffice from snap w/o trouble for last month+. Today (after a apt update on host), it no longer works (even w/ uninstall/reinstall).

$ snap list

execl failed: No such file or directory

If i strace:

sudo strace -s8192 -e file -f libreoffice
 ...
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/devices/virtual/mem/null/uevent", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4
strace: Process 15997 attached

I’m not sure what to do to debug this. Any suggestion?
