The error in the log is:

Extracting cabinet: /tmp/tmpNONrtJ.exe

  extracting Verdanaz.TTF

Verdana.TTF: No space left on device
All done, errors in processing 1 file(s)

One or more fonts could not be extracted.
The fonts are NOT installed.
Please run 'dpkg-reconfigure ttf-mscorefonts-installer' to perform the installation again

dpkg: error processing update-notifier-common (--configure):

Apparently the scripts ran out of disk space while extracting font
files.  Can you show the output of the command 'df -h' on this system?
