NAME 🖥️ update-default-wordlist 🖥️
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
