In the DpkgTerminalLog.txt is has the line:
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/
This is an indication of either file system corruption on your system or a corrupted package. You can try fixing this by doing the following:
wget https:/
That should retrieve another copy of the python3 .deb file in the directory from which you ran the command. Then do:
sudo dpkg -i python3_
This problem is not an indication of a bug in the package.
