DESCRIPTION

     Create a gdbm database file DB_FILE from the dump file FILE.
     If  the  FILE  argument  is not supplied, output the created
     database to the standard error.

     If the input file is in ASCII dump format, the mode and own-
     ership  of the created database are restored from the infor-
     mation in the dump.  This can be overridden using  the  com-
     mand line options (see below).

     -n, --no-meta
          Do not attempt to restore database meta-data (mode  and

     -r, --replace
          If the database exists, replace records in it.

     -u, --user=NAME|UID[:NAME|GID]
          Set file ownership.
