Delete everything from .local/lib. You have installed dolfin from the ubuntu PPA, but then overwrited the ubuntu installation with your own installation in .local.

my error - do not continue to next steps or installation of further libraries until you sorted the actual installation of FEniCS. You have opened up to now five posts in this forum, and all five of them were about a wrong installation Fenicsx 0.8 Installation Issues, Issue Related to ufl, Facing Problem working with Fenics, How to install all dependencies at a time, Guide me to install fenics_shells . While we are happy to help, we are not a professional support team, and keep opening questions phrased in a slightly different way which end up discussing the same issue over and over again is not the way you want to interact in this forum. Open one topic, and use it until you managed to solve your installation problem. If you persevere in this behavior we may interpret your posting multiple topics as a (illegitimate) way to try to boost the attention you receive from the readers of the forum. Not only doing that doesn’t work, but may have unfortunate consequences for your user (worst case scenario, a ban).
ps: by the way, we have created a new library (called pusimp) that will automatically detect the case of conflicting libraries in .local/lib and warn the user of the mistake, which is released on the newest ubuntu. You probably have a version of ubuntu which is not the latest one and thus this feature is not available.
