ccid for Debian
---------------
Note for a USB smart card reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You should install the udev package
The libccid driver uses the /proc/bus/usb/ filesystem to communicate
with the USB reader.
I strongly recommend to install the ``udev'' Debian package.
Note for a GemPC Twin connected to a serial port
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You have to edit /etc/reader.conf.d/libccidtwin to chose the serial port
your reader is connected to.
The configuration file /etc/reader.conf is automatically (re)generated
if your start update-reader.conf(8)
See update-reader.conf(8) for more information.
When the package is removed:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you configured /etc/reader.conf.d/libccidtwin and remove the package
you will get an error message from pcscd (in /var/log/messages by
default). Something like:
Sep 23 22:29:11 foobar pcscd: dyn_unix.c:32 DYN_LoadLibrary: dlerror()
reports /usr/lib/pcsc/drivers/serial/libccidtwin.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
This is because the library is removed by the configuration file
/etc/reader.conf.d/libccidtwin is still present and /etc/reader.conf
still uses the configuration and try to start the driver for the Twin
reader.
If you really want to get rid of this warning you can purge the package
(dpkg --purge libccid) but you will lose your configuration file
/etc/reader.conf.d/libccidtwin and you will have to reconfigure it if
you re-install the libccid package.
