<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
<PRE>
update-default-ispell [--skip-symlinks] [--triggered]
</PRE>
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<FONT SIZE="-1">WARNING:</FONT> Not to be used from the command line unless you know very well what you are doing.
<P>
This program is intended to be called from ispell dictionary package postinst,
from <B>select-default-ispell</B> or
from dictionaries-common postinst.
<P>
When called under dpkg control with the <B>--trigger</B> option the
script is run normally, otherwise the dictionaries-common
<B>update-default-ispell</B> trigger is enabled
for later run.
<P>
With the <B>--skip-symlinks</B> option the symlinks setting is skipped.
This is needed for <B>update-default-ispell</B> when called from
dictionaries-common postinst, since autobuilt hashes may not yet
be available.
<P>
When run normally (from the command line or with <B>--trigger</B>)
this script rebuilds the info at
<I>/var/cache/dictionaries-common/ispell.db</I>
after files under <I>/var/lib/dictionaries-common/ispell</I>,
reads the system default from the debconf database and
unless disabled, set default symlinks in <I>/etc/dictionaries-common</I>
pointing to the appropriate files in
<I>/usr/lib/ispell/</I>.
<P>
For ispell this script also updates the system-wide setting
<I>/etc/dictionaries-common/ispell-default</I> and the emacsen,
jed, and SquirrelMail support after known info.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<PRE>
--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
