PG_UPDATEDICTS(8)       Debian PostgreSQL infrastructure      PG_UPDATEDICTS(8)

NAME
       pg_updatedicts - build PostgreSQL dictionaries from myspell/hunspell
       ones

SYNOPSIS
       pg_updatedicts

DESCRIPTION
       pg_updatedicts makes dictionaries and affix files from installed myspell
       and hunspell dictionary packages available to PostgreSQL for usage with
       tsearch and word stem support. In particular, it takes all *.dic and
       *.aff files from /usr/share/myspell/dicts/, converts them to UTF-8, puts
       them into /var/cache/postgresql/dicts/ with *.dict and *.affix suffixes,
       and symlinks them into /usr/share/postgresql/version/tsearch_data/,
       where PostgreSQL looks for them.

       Through postgresql-common's dpkg trigger, this program is automatically
       run whenever a myspell or hunspell dictionary package is installed or
       upgraded.
