Hi Nicolas,
I tried to install the same but it worked just fine for me.

But in your logs I found this:
CGroup: /system.slice/tftpd-hpa.service
└─27692 plymouth --ping

That reminded me of plymouth issue that affects various packages by this plymout ping not returning in time and thereby sometimes failing all kind of service starts.

Note: on an install/upgrade a service has to be (re)started. This is the reason this pops up on your install/upgrade actions. But the real issue is in the setup (to trigger this) or plymoutth-ping itself.

I'll search for the bug and dup yours on it if I find it.

ok found it, all further comments should be on that bug I dupped this one to then.

If you can help there by providing more details to your setup so that it can be tracked down why plymouth --ping hangs on your system that would help to resolve this.
