upgrade hangs with man-db

[Canuck.old]

upon asking Upgrade Manager to upgrade from 9.04 to
9.10 I get:

snip

Unknown media type in type 'all/all'

Unknown media type in type 'all/allfiles'

Unknown media type in type 'uri/mms'

Unknown media type in type 'uri/mmst'

Unknown media type in type 'uri/mmsu'

Unknown media type in type 'uri/pnm'

Unknown media type in type 'uri/rtspt'

Unknown media type in type 'fonts/package'

Unknown media type in type 'interface/x-winamp-skin'

Processing triggers for man-db ...

and there it sits after about 90 minutes.

I am currently downloading an install disk but would
rather just press a magic button & have it work.

Thank you for your time.

This problem is no longer relevant - the upgrade never finished & the system was badly damaged.
I reloaded from scratch with many problems. working on them! Thank you for your time.
