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!
