I presume you mean the trustdb.gpg.  I copied that from my old install directory, but then the messages seemed to indicate that pubring.gpg could be the problem, so I copied pubring.gpg and pubring.kbx.  Now attempting to list keys gives me many more than previously, but then ends with 


gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=00)
gpg: keydb_search_next failed: invalid packet
