message htdig crondaily can't find /var/spool/htdig/db.wordlist.work

[Walter Tautz <wtautz@math.uwaterloo.ca>]

I get the following message:


Subject: Cron <root@kodaira> test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily

/etc/cron.daily/htdig:
htmerge: Unable to open word list file '/var/spool/htdig/db.wordlist.work'

How do I insure this file exists. All I see is 
db.wordlist.work.new and
db.docdb


this is on woody.
