Marking invalid since it's actually due to a broken work around.
What I think you'll need to do is get a copy of the library file (like
the one that you copied into /usr/lib) and put it somewhere else - lets
say /home/wherever/bodge . Now find what starts nx, and start it
manually from a terminal, but before you do then do:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/wherever/bodge:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
that will cause NX to pick up it's library from /home/whereever/bodge
first. It might need some debugging, but at least it won't break
everything else.

Any time I try to view a PDF file, an icon is created in the task bar
that says "opening file ...." but the file does not open. No errors are
shown and I have not located any messages in any of the logs. This
problem affects ALL pdf files, but the files are displayable using
"mupdf".
According to the following, evince 3.6.0 is installed.
-
apt-cache policy evince
evince:
- Installed: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
- Candidate: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
- Version table:

I have attempted to purge and reinstall evince several times, even to
the point of deleting the evince libraries in /usr/lib/ and
/usr/share/ and /var/lib/dpkg/info/ The result is always the same.
Sometimes after the failure, Ubuntu reports an internal error in evince
- which I have told it to send a report to the developers. The report
must be very small, as it takes less than a second to do so.
