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
