These are issues related your Galaxy setup.

(for other readers: "Galaxy" in this context is a web-based framework 
for bioinformatics analysis, see https://galaxyproject.org/ and 
https://usegalaxy.org ).

Such issues are best asked in their support forums:
   https://galaxyproject.org/support/
   https://help.galaxyproject.org

This includes problems in underlying layers, such as the 'dpkg' errors
above that result from deploying Galaxy VMs or instances or kubernetes 
or containers etc.

This warning indeed comes from coreutils program 'tail',
however it is harmless in your situation.
For more details, see here:
  https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/filesystems.html

A cursory look at the error logs makes it seem like
"address@hidden" is the place to ask General questions about 
"Galaxy" server (because it is the last thing mentioned),
but that is not the case.
We can only help with coreutils programs (e.g. 'tail').

Please contact the Galaxy team for galaxy-related issues.

Hope this helps.
