NAME
       installdeb-hunspell - debhelper-like utility for maintainers of  Debian packages


SYNOPSIS
        installdeb-hunspell [debhelper options]


DESCRIPTION
       installdeb-hunspell is a debhelper like program that is responsible for installing
       appropriate debhelper snippets in a  package, according to the Debian Spell Dictionaries
       and Tools Policy.

       For more details, see
        /usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev/dsdt-policy.txt.gz

       The actions executed by installdeb-hunspell are the following:

       •   Maintainer Scripts

           installdeb-hunspell installs the necessary scraps of code in the postinst and postrm
           scripts.

       •   Language info file

           installdeb-hunspell also checks a file containing
            information, called debian/info-hunspell or debian/package.info-hunspell.  If this
           file is successfully parsed, it is installed in the
           /var/lib/dictionaries-common/hunspell directory.

       •   Substvars substitutions

           This script will populate a substvars file, so Depends line in control file can
           contain ${hunspell:Depends} to automatically care for dictionaries-common
           dependencies.

           This requires "Build-Depends" on at least dictionaries-common-dev 1.23.0 and is highly
           recommended.

       •   Debconf files

           As opposed to installdeb-ispell and installdeb-wordlist, neither installdeb-aspell nor
           installdeb-hunspell do anything related to debconf files, since both aspell and
           hunspell rely on the environment variable "LANG" for default dictionary selection
           instead of using symlinks set after a debconf question on dictionary installation. For
           that reason if you need to add debconf stuff with debhelper to your aspell or hunspell
           dictionary package do it in the usual way and call dh_installdebconf(1) as for any
           other package.


OPTIONS
       The usual dephelper(1) options are accepted.


NOTES
       This program is not part of debhelper, although it is intended to be used in hunspell
       dictionary packages using debhelper in its building.


SEE ALSO
