# update-bgoffice-dicts(1)

automate updating of bgoffice dictionaries

## NAME

update-bgoffice-dicts - automate updating of bgoffice dictionaries

## SYNOPSIS

```
    update-bgoffice-dicts [option...]
```

## DESCRIPTION

**update-bgoffice-dicts** automates the downloading and updating of bgoffice dictionaries. It uses [**debconf**(7)](/debconf/7.md) to ask the user which dictionaries to download, then invokes [**bgoffice-dict-download**(1)](/bgoffice-dict-download/1.md) to download them, and finally extracts the files in the right directory, so that bgoffice can find them.

The last part will fail unless **update-bgoffice-dicts** is run as root.

## OPTIONS

- \--no-ask

  Normally, debconf won't ask the questions that are already seen by the user. That behaviour is disabled by default, as it is quite useful to be able to change your dictionary selection when invoking **update-bgoffice-dicts**. If you want to simply re-download and unpack the dictionaries, based on a previously made selection, use that option.
