I found a solution! It’s a missing library (libssl1).

Ubuntu 19.10 doesn’t have libssl1 installed by default. Even worse, libssl1 is not part of Ubuntu’s official repositories (which means you can’t install with “apt install”). I think the library has been deprecated.

This missing lib also causes a second annoying bug: it is not possible to enter on PlayMode (even a brand new empty project can’t enter on PlayMode).

To fix the issues:

sudo dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.2n-1ubuntu6_amd64.deb

I recommend Unity team to:
(a) Make Unity automatically install this library; or
(b) Make Unity not depend on this library; or
(c) Show a popup message telling the user that his system is missing this library (instead of just crashing);
