NAME¶
update-default-ispell - update default ispell dictionary
SYNOPSIS¶
update-default-ispell [--skip-symlinks] [--triggered]
DESCRIPTION¶
WARNING: Not to be used from the command line unless you know very well what you
are doing.
This program is intended to be called from ispell dictionary package postinst,
from
select-default-ispell or from dictionaries-common postinst.
When called under dpkg control with the
--trigger option the script is
run normally, otherwise the dictionaries-common
update-default-ispell
trigger is enabled for later run.
With the
--skip-symlinks option the symlinks setting is skipped. This is
needed for
update-default-ispell when called from dictionaries-common
postinst, since autobuilt hashes may not yet be available.
When run normally (from the command line or with
--trigger) this script
rebuilds the info at
/var/cache/dictionaries-common/ispell.db after
files under
/var/lib/dictionaries-common/ispell, reads the system
default from the debconf database and unless disabled, set default symlinks in
/etc/dictionaries-common pointing to the appropriate files in
/usr/lib/ispell/.
For ispell this script also updates the system-wide setting
/etc/dictionaries-common/ispell-default and the emacsen, jed, and
SquirrelMail support after known info.
OPTIONS¶
--skip-symlinks Do not try to set symlinks at /etc/dictionaries-common dir.
--triggered Run all the code instead of trying to enable
update-default-ispell trigger
