From your log:
Apr 19 19:19:11 john php-fpm7.2[2690]: [19-Apr-2018 19:19:11] ERROR: unable to bind listening socket for address '/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock': No such file or directory (2)

I retried the same and it worked fine for me.

ll /run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock
srw-rw---- 1 www-data www-data 0 Apr 24 13:35 /run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock=

The socket was created just fine.

Most often such issues are local config issues so I have to ask if you modified the config in a way that could affect this?
ALso if you upgrade the package again does this trigger every time?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I'm marking this bug as Incomplete.

If indeed this is a local configuration problem, you can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community

Or if you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New.
