Description

https://github.com/assimp/assimp-net/blob/c32aa5314be999d47a4d10c18762a033c47358cf/AssimpNet/Unmanaged/AssimpLibrary.cs#L1765

I believe this should be libdl.so.2 for newer versions of Ubuntu. (and possibly other distros) since it is not consistently named. See here: (https://github.com/mellinoe/nativelibraryloader/issues/2)

Research direction

Start at AssimpNet/Unmanaged/AssimpLibrary.cs near line 1765 and read the linked NativeLibraryLoader discussion about libdl naming. Verify the correct library name on newer Ubuntu versions and check that the unmanaged library still loads successfully there; done means the Linux loading path works with the supported name.
