OK, thats weird. I just installed RT in an Ubuntu-8.04 VM and 
installation went without a hitch. Maybe because I install RT from 
source and not using a package. I think you have had a packaged RT 
installed (/usr/share/request-tracker3.6/...) which also means that your 
apache config is pointing to the old installation.
You'll need to fix your Apache config to point to /opt/rt3.8 and not by 
copying files around. You can use your 3.6 rt database but DONT'T forget 
to read the upgrade notes, including the mysql updates even if you're 
running mysql-5!
