Setting up python3-gi (3.4.0-1) ...
This is the error message:

dpkg-query: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0004' near line 0:

This is not something which is specific to pygobject. It's either a
weird corner-case bug in dpkg, or more probably, memory/disk corruption.

post-installation script returned error exit status 1
