I will attach dpkg.log.gz unless you are asking for
/var/log/dpkg/history.log.

I will try that later. Meanwhile:
# cksum ./cache/apt/archives/texlive-fonts-extra_2018.20190227-1_all.deb

I did wonder about that, especially /tmp/. I did check dmesg after the
run/crash but there didn't seem to be anything relevant there.

Main space has 158GB free, but /tmp is on RAM:

# findmnt /tmp
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/tmp   tmpfs  tmpfs  rw,nosuid,nodev
with (by default) 7.8GB free.

This machine has 16GB of RAM, and I think the tmpfs can use up to 50%,
but I might be wrong about that.

From the debug messages with -D10 on dpkg, there were a vast number of
files being, was it "deferred", and I did wonder whether those entries
were going on a stack somewhere which might have overflowed?

As a temporary fix, I tried "holding" texlive-fonts-extra, but that
didn't work out, so I removed it, and then completed the apt-get
upgrade. I marked some of the dependent packages manually for install
which all wnet through smoothly. But obviously I would like the package
back.

Just a quick reply: out of time this morning, but hope to reload etc
later today.

Thanks for prompt reply,

ael
