36
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
37
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
38
initrd environment, not the real system.

Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging by connecting

Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
46
they should normally have been automatically created.

** Use asprintf instead of malloc and memcpy?

** Do not depend on GnuPG key rings on disk
61
This would mean creating new GnuPG key rings with GPGME by
62
importing the key files from scratch on every program start.

Examples of normal usage, debug usage, with a prefix, etc.
76
Not much to do here but it is noteworthy to state the danger of
77
not having a fallback option.
79
Note that this is more or less a simple getpass(3) wrapper, even
80
though actual use of getpass(3) is not guaranteed.
