This process happens automatically; users only need to open their vault to
upgrade older indices.
### Legacy Fernet migration
Older versions stored the vault index in a file named
`seedpass_passwords_db.json.enc` encrypted with Fernet. When opening such a
vault, SeedPass now automatically decrypts the legacy file, re‑encrypts it using
AES‑GCM, and saves it under the new name `seedpass_entries_db.json.enc`.
The original Fernet file is preserved as
`seedpass_entries_db.json.enc.fernet` and the legacy checksum file, if present,
is renamed to `seedpass_entries_db_checksum.txt.fernet`.
No additional command is required – simply open your existing vault and the
conversion happens transparently.
