Bogofilter 0.7.5 was released yesterday as a tarball (source) and rpms 
(source and binaries).  We do not presently have a debian packager, so that 
format isn't available.

html copies of the current man pages for bogofilter and bogoutil can be found:

         http://www.osagesoftware.com/bogofilter/bogofilter.html
         http://www.osagesoftware.com/bogofilter/bogoutil.html

Anyhow, some of that bogoutil can do is new to 0.7.5.  The quick examples are:

         load wordlist from text file - bogofilter -l 
~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db < input
         dump wordlist to text file   - bogofilter -d 
~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db > output
         display tokens in wordlist   - bogofilter -w 
~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db < tokens
         display single token         - echo single.token | bogofilter -w 
~/.bogofilter/goodlist.db

where input and output are lists of tokens and counts (one token and one 
count per line)
   and tokens is a list of tokens (one per line).

Note that the load function is really an update of the wordlist, so it's 
easy to add words to a list or increase their counts.  I'm not sure if 
bogoutil allows decrementing a count.

P.S.  As a debian user, would you care to take on the task of creating the 
debian package?
