UPDATE-DEFAULT-WORDLIST(8)                                             UPDATE-DEFAULT-WORDLIST(8)



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
