This seems to be an issue with kpsewhich .. after killing the hanging process, 
update manager showed an error notification and continued.
The error message in the terminal indicated that the error was in 
texlive-lang-danish.

After a little while, the update manager got into a hang again after
installation of updmap-sys. Again, kpsewhich used 100% CPU and consumed
memory.

I killed kpsewhich again and changed /usr/bin/kpsewhich to not be executable 
any longer so that I do not have to kill this dozens of times.
This helped to get the update process going again.
