in the DebianGIS package the lib dir was renamed in 6.4.0~rc3-3 back in
late March. AFAIK UbuntuGIS often just rebuilds the Debian package for
their world.

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/g/grass/grass_6.4.0~rc5-3/changelog

are you using a newer version of grass than rc3?


it looks like Karmic's package has the versioned dirs:
  http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/i386/grass/filelist

(rc5-1 is buggy and should not ship without the patch from Debian's rc5-2!!
but that is another matter..
