system stopped responding during update, it was removing outdated files it stopped at "man_db"

[Bill]

Binary package hint: compiz

I was just doing a normal update of the system. It went through almost all of it just fine. It asked if I wanted to delete obsolete files and I agreed. It stopped responding when it got to "man_db". I let it go for about 10 minutes or so and restarted. Then I got the "A program caused a crash" message.
