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¶
debhelper(1), dictionaries-common.checklist, dsdt-policy.txt
This program is part of the dictionaries-common-dev package. It is intended to
be used by maintainers of hunspell dictionary packages for Debian. See the
documentation under /usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev.
