Title:
  package systemd-sysv 249.11-0ubuntu3.4 failed to install/upgrade:
  dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile subprocess returned error exit status 2

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  On first boot of the day an update prompt offered to install a fairly
  large batch and I accepted. Shortly after, during said update, the
  computer froze. I could not shortcut to a terminal.

  Simultaneously to the update I was editing a text file in Sublime, had
  Chrome open in the background, Skype running on startup. I wouldn't
  normally report it but a crash of systemd on update at startup is
  pretty unusual and severe.
