Public bug reported: On a jammy image running on Raspberry Pi 400, I've seen the man-db trigger appear to "hang" a couple of times now (eventually resulting in me rebooting the system and fixing things up with "sudo dpkg- reconfigure"). I'm aware of LP: #1858777 but I don't *think* this is the same thing.
Firstly, there appears to be a mandb process that's pegged in a busy loop, and despite leaving it a good 20 minutes (far longer than it usually takes, which is generally no more than half a minute), it's still there. The output from the apt process is simply: Processing triggers for man-db (2.9.4-4) ... And the following can be seen in top: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 75148 man 20 0 12180 2128 0 R 100.0 0.1 24:09.33 /usr/bin/mandb -pq (note the value in the TIME+ field) Any hints for producing some more debug output / logs from mandb so I can dig into this further, gratefully accepted! ** Affects: man-db (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1958929 Title: man-db trigger hanging To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/man-db/+bug/1958929/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
