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/dsdt-policy.txt.

       The actions executed by installdeb-hunspell are the following:

       o   Maintainer Scripts

           installdeb-hunspell installs the necessary scraps of code in the
           postinst and postrm scripts.

       o   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 [tmpdir]/var/lib/dictionaries-common
           directory.

       o   Debconf files

           As opposed to installdeb-ispell and installdeb-wordlist, neither
           installdeb-aspell nor installdeb-hunspell does nothing 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)

       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.
