Thanks for the log. Would it be possible to share the initial part
without errors? It seems the problem is not in the content of the
packages, but in the sequence of installation, so it would be useful to
know what got unpack and what didn't.
Just two random things to test to try to unbrick the system:
- Try running 'ldconfig'. As it seems that some postinst scripts have
been able to run before things start to crash, it could be that it is
not run properly.
- Try unsetting LC_ALL (and possibly LC_*) and LANGUAGES environment
variables. Given the issue appears in the tolower function, it could
be a problem with the locales.
