NAME

       migrate-pubring-from-classic-gpg - Migrate a public keyring from "classic" to "modern" GnuPG

SYNOPSIS

       migrate-pubring-from-classic-gpg [ GPGHOMEDIR | --default ]

DESCRIPTION

       migrate-pubring-from-classic-gpg  migrates the public keyring in GnuPG home directory GPGHOMEDIR from the
       "classic" keyring format to the "modern" keybox format using GnuPG versions 2.1 or 2.2.

       Specifying --default selects the standard GnuPG home directory (looking at $GNUPGHOME first, and  falling
       back to ~/.gnupg if unset.

OPTIONS

DIAGNOSTICS

       During  a  migration,  the  tool  backs  up  several  pieces of data in a timestamped subdirectory of the
       GPGHOMEDIR.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       GNUPGHOME Selects the GnuPG home directory when set and --default is given.

       GPG The name of the gpg executable (defaults to gpg ).
