There are other packages that require a bit of time post-install, such
as the texlive package.  Having the man-db package update the DB
immediately after install sounds like a good idea, even if it takes a
few minutes.

Else, end users that aren't familiar with re-creating the DB may be
discouraged at not finding something in the man pages.

That, or else use a non-blocking method of printing a message with the
DB creation command line.
