When running sudo aptitude upgrade, the console freezes for long after almost every package upgrade with a message "Processing triggers for man-db ...". What could be the problem and how can I fix it?



Ubuntu version: 12.04 (both Server and Xubuntu)



Thanks in advance.





Update: It looks like this problem is related to package autofs upon my further tests. Removing autofs resolved the issues. No idea why. I then have to use soft links instead of autofs for my file system to avoid this issue (and other two issues posted here as well).

  • I have the same problem, will see if removing autofs helps. Thanks!

I had something similar just after installing Ubuntu 18.04 on Windows Subsystem for Linux and running update and upgrade: it got stuck at processing triggers for man-db (2.8.3-2).
And also later, after running



sudo apt install python3-pip


My solution: I just waited. In the second case even some 15 minutes.
I do not know whether this is normal, as I am very new to Linux. But this so people just know another experience if they run into the same problem.

    Might be helpful for someone: I ran into this issue on our CI regularly.



    Just execute the following:



    sudo apt-get remove -y --purge man-db


    The command removes the man-db package completely, which in our case on CI, was completely useless anyway.
