As I understood it libchipcard3 is a experimental version and is not suggested for productive use. See here for a recent comment about the versions: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01306.html >> The latter seems to have issues with the so-versions in libchipcard3-0 > > Any more verbose information about thes issues?

The .so-Files didn't equally increase their versions but are packaged in the same Debian binary package. This is more of a packaging issue than a library question. >> As far as I can tell libchipcard3 is ready up to some things I sent to >> the list the other day[1]. >> 1. >> http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/aqbanking-maint/2007-July/000079.html > > OK, that's a sufficient information and I think that GNUmed people > will be happy to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I fear you will have to wait until libchipcard3 is a bit more stable. But maybe we should upload the current experimental libchipcard3 package to experimental to make it public to a broader audience... Sorry...
