I encountered this error in a Xenial->Bionic upgrade today, with current
(final) Bionic (18.04.1).

Installation didn't complete, then trying apt-get -f install resulted in
the message

apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libzstd.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Quick search confirmed there was no such file in the system.

I copied /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libzstd.so.1.3.3 over from another machine 
running Bionic,
linked it to libzstd.so.1, ran apt-get -f install and then apt-get 
dist-upgrade, which completed
the upgrade without further problems.

It looks like apt got upgraded before libzstd was installed. Why I don't
know, but my first guess would be some rare race condition.
