An irritating feature in Mageia, when man-db update eats a lot of CPU every now and then. To disable the feature via Terminal
su
chmod -x /usr/libexec/man-db
nano /etc/sysconfig/man-db
… the contents with disable (no)
# Set this to "no" to disable man-db update triggered by installation
# of any package containing manual pages
SERVICE="no"
# Set this to "no" to disable daily man-db update run by
# /etc/cron.daily/man-db.cron
CRON="no"
# Options used by mandb, we use "-q" as default, too much noise without it
OPTS="-q"
