That's the sole reason, yes. From aspell-autobuildhash(8): | Dictionaries-common scripts will call internally this script and | create a single hash file at /var/lib/ispell/$lang.rws, or hash files | at /var/lib/ispell/$subdict.rws. You must set a symlink to that files | from /usr/lib/aspell/$lang.rws or /usr/lib/aspell/$subdict.rws as | appropriate. You are also suggested to create empty files at | /var/lib/aspell/$lang.rws or for all of the | /var/lib/aspell/$subdict.rws in the install target of your package | build process. This empty file will be overwritten when the real hash | is created, but will make the hash be removed at package removal | without any magic being done in the postrm and will also help to keep | track about which package owns that file. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
