dpkg: cycle found while processing triggers:
chain of packages whose triggers are or may be responsible:
man-db -> menu
packages' pending triggers which are or may be unresolvable:
man-db: /usr/share/man
systemd: /etc/init.d
doc-base: /usr/share/doc-base
menu: /usr/share/menu
There's no real cycle here (while menu installs manual pages, man-db for its part doesn't install anything that would cause menu to be triggered), so I think this must be a dpkg bug.
