Below one probable cause and the remedy.

After fresh installation of texlive the directory 'lastpage' has been installed (I do not know why?) in '/usr/local/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/'. Invocation of 'texhash', quite obviously has lead to no improvement.
Next, I have copied the directory 'lastpage' from this location to correct location '/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/', using administrator privileges (sudo or su for Linux).
Invocation of 'texhash' has completed the procedure.
