Thanks Neels,
I got one step further by running:
$ sudo apt install python3-construct
and felt kinda stupid when that worked.
Unfortunately that did not solve all my issues, because then I got:
./pySim-read.py -p0 1 ↵ ⚙ 1061 15:38:08

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

So I sought to install PySide:
sudo pip3 install -U PySide --no-cache-dir

and it then turned out PySide only support Python up to 3.4. - which was quite
surprising to me.
So I thought to set up an anaconda envuronmentwith Python 3.4, but the oldest
Python3 version that is support by anaonconda is Python 3.5.4 argh.
My intermediate hypothesis is that things broke with recent Ubuntu update to a
more recent Python version?
Thanks for the help and comments that might help me get on my way.
Best,
Niels
