Hello Andrew, this is confusing, based on the segfault from the maintainer scripts, I was expecting to see more evidence of memory failure or disk failure in your logs, but they look reasonable enough.

It might still be worth running memtest86 overnight or over the weekend, just to be sure.

Thanks
