APPLYGNUPGDEFAULTS(8) GNU Privacy Guard 2.2 APPLYGNUPGDEFAULTS(8) NAME applygnupgdefaults - Run gpgconf ‐‐apply‐defaults for all users. SYNOPSIS applygnupgdefaults DESCRIPTION This is a legacy script. Modern application should use the per compo‐ nent global configuration files under ‘/etc/gnupg/’. This script is a wrapper around gpgconf to run it with the command ‐‐apply‐defaults for all real users with an existing GnuPG home direc‐ tory. Admins might want to use this script to update he GnuPG configu‐ ration files for all users after ‘/etc/gnupg/gpgconf.conf’ has been changed. This allows enforcing certain policies for all users. Note, that this is not a bulletproof way to force a user to use certain op‐ tions. A user may always directly edit the configuration files and by‐ pass gpgconf. applygnupgdefaults is invoked by root as: applygnupgdefaults GnuPG 2.2.39 2022‐08‐19 APPLYGNUPGDEFAULTS(8)
