## NAME
       **addgnupghome** - Create .gnupg home directories

## SYNOPSIS
       **addgnupghome** _account_1_ _account_2_..._account_n_


## DESCRIPTION
       If  GnuPG  is  installed on a system with existing user accounts, it is sometimes required to
       populate the GnuPG home directory with existing files.  Especially a  ‘_trustlist.txt_’  and  a
       keybox  with  some  initial  certificates are often desired.  This script helps to do this by
       copying all files from ‘_/etc/skel/.gnupg_’ to the home directories of the  accounts  given  on
       the command line.  It takes care not to overwrite existing GnuPG home directories.


       **addgnupghome** is invoked by root as:

         addgnupghome account1 account2 ... accountn
