7.4.1 Invoking gpgconf
One of the following commands must be given:
--list-components
- List all components. This is the default command used if none is
specified.
--check-programs
- List all available backend programs and test whether they are runnable.
--list-options
component- List all options of the component component.
--change-options
component- Change the options of the component component.
--apply-defaults
- Update all configuration files with values taken from the global
configuration file (usually /etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf).
--list-config [
filename]
- List the global configuration file in a colon separated format. If
filename is given, check that file instead.
--check-config [
filename]
- Run a syntax check on the global configuration file. If filename
is given, check that file instead.
The following options may be used:
-v
--verbose
- Outputs additional information while running. Specifically, this
extends numerical field values by human-readable descriptions.
-r
--runtime
- Only used together with
--change-options
. If one of the
modified options can be changed in a running daemon process, signal
the running daemon to ask it to reparse its configuration file after
changing.
This means that the changes will take effect at run-time, as far as
this is possible. Otherwise, they will take effect at the next start
of the respective backend programs.
