ln -s libxml2.so.16 /opt/calibre/lib/libxml2.so.2

that will force whatever it is to load libxml2.so.16
I was having the same problem upgrading from 7.23 to 8.12 on Ubuntu 24.04. The workaround posted above by Kovid solves the issue.

The --ignore-plugins does not make any difference. And the problem only happens when trying to start calibre in debug mode. Starting calibre normally was OK even before the workaround.
