If you still have the 508 format file could you run:

$ python2 /usr/share/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx <file>-lyxformat-508.lyx > /dev/null

The only difference from your command above is that this is running the 
converter using python2 and not python3 as it happens above.

For what is worth this will ignore the output because we are only interest in 
any error that can occur...

I am using the same and I am the package maintainer for those packages. :-)
