Doing more research...CAME UP WITH A WORK AROUND! But I definitely think that pgadmin4 just doesn't work with Ubuntu 21.10 out of the box. Dave, can you confirm?
No, I can't. The test I did yesterday was on a brand new, fresh installation of Ubuntu 21.10. I installed it, logged in, and then copied the commands straight from your email and it worked perfectly.
TLDR: Need to install python 3.8 for pgadmin to work with Ubuntu 21.10. Easiest way to do this is via the deadsnakes ppa and some temporary changing of the main repos to point at bionic.
Except that pgAdmin builds for Ubuntu 21.10 are built against Python 3.9, the default for Impish:
dpage@ubuntu:~$ grep PRETTY_NAME /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 21.10"
dpage@ubuntu:~$ /usr/pgadmin4/venv/bin/python3 --version
Python 3.9.7
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 21.10"
dpage@ubuntu:~$ /usr/pgadmin4/venv/bin/python3 --version
Python 3.9.7
The problem stems from the symlink being broken. If I check out the directory housing the python3 symlink that the environment is using...~$ cd /usr/pgadmin4/venv/bin
/usr/pgadmin4/venv/bin$ ls -lI see the following 2 symlinks are broken:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Feb 7 11:20 python -> python3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Feb 7 11:20 python3 -> /usr/bin/python3.8
Yet I see:

It seems pretty clear to me that you've somehow installed a build of pgAdmin for an older version of Ubuntu, one which uses Python 3.8. Based on what we currently support, that can only be Ubuntu 20.04 as that's the only Ubuntu or Debian build that uses Python 3.8.
What is in /etc/os-release on your system, and what is the output of the command:
lsb_release -cs
