Can you try the appimage from here and see if that works?:
https://download.kde.org/stable/krita/4.4.3/krita-4.4.3-x86_64.appimage
(It needs to be given execution permissions before running.)

Appimage does work as intended (however it kinda spams the terminal https://hatebin.com/lnuqqhjtuw)

With the 4.4.3 appimage, I don't get that level of 'spam' in the terminal on my Debian 10 system.
However, 4.4.3 runs and works in general and it runs and works when installed from the repo on my Ubuntu system.
I'm going to mark this as Resolved, Not A Bug because it seems to be a problem with your Ubuntu system.

That "spam" is because you still have files left-over from a distro install.
