I've made an interesting discovery with respect to this.

If I remove the `percona-toolkit` package, then mandb runs much faster
(2 seconds instead of 2 minutes).

I think there is something wrong with the man pages in that package
(although I am using the download from https://www.percona.com/percona-
toolkit to get a newer version of it, not sure if that would make a
difference).


However, ideally, mandb would be able to handle this more gracefully. And in 
20.04 this wasn't a problem.
