[Bug]: out of the blue, signal desktop fails with "making app single instance Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)"

What happened?

The Desktop App crashes on startup with

making app single instance Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

session also fails with the same codes. It was working just days ago .. no OS upgrade. not sure about updates .. using ubuntu 20.04 and I believe signal version 7.24.1 . There is no mention of a sandbox .. I'm guessing some dependencies have issues or incompatabilities as I have tried multiple re-installs of both apps. Renaming the config directory doesn't help in either case.

lately there was a power outage that may have done something. I also had to swap out an ethernet switch but everything else works with it. Same error occurs whether running signal snap or separately installed signal opt.

I haven't detected any other errors on this system since power outage ..

What should have happened?

the app should open up but does not start

  **Minimize to tray**

  Per the request of the Signal developers, this snap does not use the system
  tray by default. This is disabled by default per the request of the Signal
  developers, because system tray support is not stable. Set to `false`,
  Signal will stop when you close it and will not have a system tray icon.
  You can enable it by running the following command.

      snap set signal-desktop tray-icon=true
