NAME

       mkdb - create a new GNATS database

SYNOPSIS

       mkdb databasename

DESCRIPTION

       Looks  up  databasename in the GNATS databases file and creates a database in the location specified there.  mkdb creates the directory and
       populates it with a set of default files copied from the /usr/share/gnats/defaults directory.

       Note the implications of this: an entry in databases must be created before mkdb is run.

       The command should be run as the GNATS user, by default gnats.

OPTIONS

       databasename
	      Specifies the name of the database to be created.
