UPDATE-DEFAULT-WORDLIST(8)UPDATE-DEFAULT-WORDLIST(8)NAME
update-default-wordlist - update default wordlist
SYNOPSIS
update-default-wordlist [--dico-postinst] [--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 wordlist package postinst, from select-default-wordlist or from dictionaries-common postinst
(with --dico-postinst).
When called under dpkg control without the --dico-postinst option, a dictionaries-common trigger is enabled to be run later. In the
triggered run (or when is called from the command line or with --trigger option), reads the system default from the debconf database and
set default links in /etc/dictionaries-common pointing to the appropriate files in /usr/share/dict/. and rebuilds the
/var/cache/dictionaries-common/wordlist.db from the files in /var/lib/dictionaries-common/wordlist
When called from from dictionaries-common postinst with --dico-postinst symlinks creation step will be skipped and trigger not enabled.
OPTIONS --dico-postinst Do not enable trigger nor try to set default symlinks. --triggered Run all the code instead of trying to enable
update-default-wordlist trigger

INSTALLDEB-MYSPELL(1)INSTALLDEB-MYSPELL(1)NAME
installdeb-myspell - debhelper-like helper for Debian packages containing myspell/hunspell dictionaries or Openoffice.org
thesauri/hyphenation files.
SYNOPSIS
installdeb-myspell [--srcdir=dir] [--dico-debug] [--{no-}o2compat] [debhelper options]
DESCRIPTION
installdeb-myspell is a debhelper like program to help installing myspell/hunspell dicts as well as Openoffice.org thesauri or hyphenation
files, after contents of an info-myspell file whose format is that for old Openoffice.org 2. This needs the --srcdir option enabled.
If in o2 compatibility mode, it will also install appropriate debhelper snippets, info file and compatibility symlinks in a way a package
containing myspell/hunspell dictionaries or Openoffice.org thesauri or hyphenation files can be used in Debian lenny and former under
Openoffice.org 2 and Mozilla* according to the dictionaries policy valid at that time.
Note that unless --srcdir option is used or o2compat mode is enabled, this program will do nothing.
For more details, see
/usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common/dsdt-policy.txt.
The actions executed by installdeb-myspell are the following (only some of them are done if not in o2 compatibility mode):
Maintainer Scripts
installdeb-myspell installs the necessary scraps of code in the postinst and postrm scripts.
Language info file
installdeb-myspell will look for a file named debian/info-myspell or debian/package.info-myspell. That file contains myspell/hunspell
dictionary, OOO thesauri or hyphenation information with lines like
TYPE LANG COUNTRY NAME
If this file is successfully parsed and the o2compat option is enabled, it is installed in the [tmpdir]/usr/share/myspell/infos/ooo
directory.
A typical info-myspell file for a myspell/hunspell dictionary will contain something like
# Spanish variants
DICT es ES es_ES
DICT es AR es_ES
...
while will, for a typical hyphenation file, be something like
# Danish hyphenation
HYPH da DK hyph_da_DK
or for a sample thesaurus,
THES en US th_en_US
all with no leading whitespace. Commented lines are allowed.
Dictionary, thesaurus and hyphenation files installation
If the --srcdir=dir option is set installdeb-myspell will look for the .aff/.dic files in the directory specified by dir and install
them in the default target directory ([tmpdir]/usr/share/hunspell). Base name will be extracted from the info-myspell file (last
string in the line). If target dict uses the ancient Mozilla hyphen form, it will be renamed to the lowbar form on installation. Same
(but the renaming) for hyphenation and thesaurus files, to be installed in [tmpdir]/usr/share/hyphen and [tmpdir]/usr/share/mythes. If
o2compat option is enabled, lenny compatibility symlinks will be installed as well.
Dictionaries alternative symlinks creation
installdeb-myspell will, according to info extracted from the info-myspell, automatically set lang_COUNTRY symlinks to the dict files
installed by installdeb-myspell. This will only be done when the --srcdir option is used.
If --srcdir option is used and the info-myspell file contains something like
# Spanish variants
DICT es ES es
DICT es AR es
...
installdeb-myspell will automatically set es_ES and es_AR symlinks
Mozilla spellchecker compatibility
For myspell/hunspell dictionaries, Mozilla had a lang{,-COUNTRY} to names translation table using hyphens as separators (and for some
languages not using country part at all) instead of lowbars.
Shortly, that will no longer be the case. Mozilla will also accept lang_COUNTRY format for that translation table, no special things
will be needed. In particular, do not duplicate entries in both lowbar and hyphen forms. Use lowbar.
Debconf files
As opposed to installdeb-ispell and installdeb-wordlist, installdeb-myspell does nothing related to debconf files, not needed for
myspell/hunspell dicts and OOO thesauri and hyphenation files. If you need to add debconf stuff with debhelper proceed in the usual way
and call dh_installdebconf(1) as for any other package.
OPTIONS --dico-debug Show some installdeb-myspell specific debugging info.
Does not enable debhelper debug, you need to enable
it separately.
--srcdir=dir Will look for .aff/.dic files in the specified directory
for myspell/hunspell dict packages, for .dic files in
Openoffice.org hyphenation packages and for .dat/.idx
files in Openoffice.org thesaurus packages, installing
them if present in the default target directory. Base
name will be extracted from the info-myspell file. If
this option is specified and files are not present an
error will appear.
--{no-}o2compat Disable/enable openoffice2 compatibility. If enabled,
info file will be installed in
[tmpdir]/usr/share/myspell/infos/ooo and compatibility
symlinks will be set from the old
[tmpdir]/usr/share/myspell/dicts location. This option
is disabled by default.
--dico-{no-}alt-links {Process/Do not process} alternative symlinks
according to info found in the myspell info file.
The usual debhelper(7) options are accepted.
NOTES
This program is not part of debhelper, although depends on and is intended to work together with it.

This program is part of the dictionaries-common-dev package. It is intended for use by maintainers of packages containing myspell/hunspell
dictionaries or Openoffice.org thesauri/hyphenation files. See the documentation under /usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev.
