But the console output does show

echo '\ienc{cp1251}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\fenc{T2A}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\chapter{Cyrillic scripts}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\section{Codepage 1251}' >>alphabets-inc.tex


and if I execute this manually things are ok.

I also see that the creation of the file looks like this from the Makefile rule,
here console output

rm -f alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\chapter{Latin scripts}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\ienc{cp1252}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
echo '\section{Codepage 1252}' >>alphabets-inc.tex
[...more lines leading to cp1251 and T2A things as above...]

but the first line \chapter{Latin scripts} is not present in file alphabets-inc.tex

(as attached to this message)

Probably these messages belong more to the mailing list for TeXLive builders,
but I am only an end user, not a testing builder.

I checked if my disk was near full but i have 32G free (on a 255G SSD)

weird
