>From this link, I chose my platform and downloaded the tgz file

https://sourceforge.net/projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex-
biber/2.4/binaries/

ie, just clicked on the link below to get the 64 bit Linux version:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex-
biber/2.4/binaries/Linux/biber-linux_x86_64.tar.gz/download

To "install" this, simply unpack it and copy the single file, biber, to
your path. You could put it locally in your LaTeX source folder, or in
your own bin path, or (using sudo) in /usr/bin/.

This older version seems compatible with 16.04's biblatex, and I can
compile my file.
