Right now I have lost access to this media, environment and host where I was able to reproduce this issue. (btw I was able to install lubuntu-desktop before connecting to bionic-updates and bionic-security repos and upgrading the distro)
I can repeat my actions in debootstrapped chroot environment to reproduce my experience.
But I am not sure apport report from within chroot would count.
