Muse not running after Ubuntu Studio 18.04.1 upgrade

This may not be a muse problem, I have little experience with this sort of problem.
I recently installed MusE on Ubuntu Studio 16.04 . I downloaded it, installed qt5 and <something TBD>, ran 'compile_muse.sh' and did the build and install... all from the CLI. It was working, and I like it!
I upgraded my system to Ubuntu Studio 18.04.1 with no problems, but Muse did not work:
from my notes
Back at the command line, there were a bunch of errors like
I want a do-over! But I do not have permission to remove the menu entry using LibreMenu, and already tried rebuilding the code.
I think if I can undo the menu entry and uninstall muse that it will work if I start from scratch, except no need to download the installation files.
Any pointers on how to get unstuck are greatly appreciated.

I tried to uninstall and re-compile, rebuild, install. Something changed: when I open from the command line I see a different MusE splash screen! There are errors and warnings, but the gui does open, but when I open a project file, I see 5 piano rolls, and nothing works - no play, can't close the piano rolls.reboot, retry running muse, same result: the splash image "MusE 3.02" (whatever) opens then closes, the end.
YES I opened & started qjackctl before I tried to open muse from the gui "Audio Production" menu.
After fail, when I close JACK, it complains that there is an application open. There are no zombies in the JACK connection diagram.
Back at the command line, there were a bunch of errors like
Code: Select all
(menulibre:4745): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:35:35.053: Theme parsing error:
