NAME
update-default-wordlist - update default wordlist
SYNOPSIS
update-default-wordlist [--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 wordlist package postinst,
from select-default-wordlist 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-wordlist
trigger is enabled for later run.
With the --skip-symlinks option the symlinks setting is skipped.
When run normally (from the command line or with --trigger) this script
rebuilds the info at /var/cache/dictionaries-common/wordlist.db after
files under /var/lib/dictionaries-common/wordlist, 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/share/dict/.
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-wordlist trigger
