In response to the request for more info:

as with the three packages referenced in this bug report as well as cairo
cairo-gobject, the subject of a previous bug report of the same nature; when in
the course of an update via dnf, and subsequent boot failure results, the
system prior to update is restored and a download only of the packages is
initiated, followed by incremental updating until the suspect package(s) is/are
isolated as noted by failure to be able to manually a launch a panel app such
as terminal.  This failure to launch the panel app is an indicator that
subsequent boot will fail as has been the case with both fontconfig and
harfbuzz updates applied separately with subsequent boot failures.  The same
with aforementioned cairo and cairo-gobject.

The remainder of the packages update normally with no subsequent boot failure.

As you may surmize, when more than one package in an update produces boot
failure, and especially with a large number of packages in the update, the task
becomes more tedious.

Please note if you require more information.

Sure. what I want to see is what a process was failed to launch and how it was
failed. if this is reproducible on even launching it from the terminal, please
attach the log.

I'm not really sure what did you mean by "boot". does the kernel panic? or just
not entered into the GUI? i.e. the display manager wasn't brought up? then what
the display manager do you use? and is there any logs in journalctl for that?

I have reproduced the boot failure and extracted numerous logs, including the
user and system journals.  If you require them 
beyond the information below, I can zip them and attach to an email to
[e-mail].

The following appears in terminal window when installing the fontconfig package
specified in bug report 1579464:

symbol lookup error: /lib64/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol:
FT_Done_MM_Var

the lightdm greeter seat0greeter-log indicates:
/usr/sbin/lightdm-gtk-greeter:

symbol lookup error: /lib64/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol:
FT_Done_MM_Var

Thanks. that symbol is available in freetype-2.9.1-1.fc29. I'll update deps in
fontconfig to satisfy it.

undefined symbol: FT_Done_MM_Var is cuase by freetype-freeworld

Fix for me was "dnf remove freetype-freeworld".
