NAME
installdeb-aspell - debhelper-like utility for
maintainers of aspell dictionary Debian packages
SYNOPSIS
installdeb-aspell [debhelper options]
DESCRIPTION
installdeb-aspell is a debhelper like program that is
responsible for installing appropriate debhelper snippets in
an aspell dictionary package,
according to the Debian Spell Dictionaries and Tools Policy.
For more details, see
/usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common/dsdt-policy.txt.
The actions executed by installdeb-aspell are the
following:
"Maintainer
installdeb-aspell installs the necessary
scraps of code in the postinst and postrm scripts.
"Language
installdeb-aspell also checks a file containing
aspell dictionary information, called
debian/info-aspell or
debian/package.info-aspell. If this file is
successfully parsed, it is installed in the
[tmpdir]/var/lib/dictionaries-common directory.
"Debconf
As opposed to installdeb-ispell and installdeb-wordlist, installdeb-aspell
does nothing related to debconf files, since aspell relies on the
environment variable \s-1LANG\s0 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 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 aspell dictionary packages using debhelper in its
building.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(1)
This program is part of the dictionaries-common-dev package. It is
intended to be used by maintainers of ispell dictionaries and wordlist
packages for Debian. See the documentation under
/usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev.
