> So, why is upowerd getting linked to
/usr/local/lib/libimobiledevice.so.6 in the first place?

well, upower is linked to libimobiledevice.so.6, then the glibc loader
is looking for available versions in the standard path and "/usr/local"
has the priority, it's there to let admins setup local overrides and
"taking over the distro version" if needed. That's handy if you for some
reason need to maintain a modified version on your system, but it can
lead situations where you shoot yourself in the foot like here...

closing the bug as invalid, it's not a distro issue

** Changed in: upower (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Invalid
