Note the danger of using this program, since you might lock
15
yourself out of your system without any means of entering the root
16
file system password. This is, however, very unlikely considering
17
the fallback to getpass(3).

State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
28
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
29
initrd environment, not the real system.
36
Note that it does *not* currently use cryptsource or crypttarget.

Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
39
they should normally have been automatically created.

** Do not depend on GnuPG key rings on disk
52
This would mean creating new GnuPG key rings with GPGME by

importing the key files from scratch on every program start.
