What version of Ubuntu are you using?

Instead of downloading the pyside2 package from pypi (which misses 
Kirigami deps), try getting it from the unbuntu repository.

Check the version for pyside2: It should be PySide2 5.15+

It you have that version, then mygnuhealth should run out of the box. No 
need for symlinks or any tweaks.

All the best,
