I'm getting the same thing - hanging interminably at "processing triggers for 
man-db" while updating in 8.10
(this is the 3rd 8.10 update I've done on this machine - the others went fine)

Happens whether I update via terminal or Synaptic.
Have to force a close of the terminal or Synaptic. (Hard boot required on one 
occasion)

Had to use "sudo dpkg --configure -a" a few times, reloading Synaptic in 
between (or via terminal) and running the update process.
Restarted/Rebooted between each cycle.
Update manager notification was locked on each occasion, requiring choosing to 
ignore & reboot anyway.

Each time it did a few more packages, but locked up on hitting "processing 
triggers for man-db"
After 5 cycles it finally finished the job.
