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
