OK, i've done further testing and my previous diagnosis isn't quite right. The sarge package appears to now be failing on my system at USB device removal/insert time as well.
So i've gone back to the lenny/sid (0.6.14-1) package. What i've
found is that upon device insertion, the openct framework appears to
fail.
but if i restart openct with the device already inserted (via
/etc/init.d/openct/restart), everything works properly until the next
removal/reinsertion.
Thoughts? Suggestions? My workaround at the moment is to bind an
ACPI hotkey on my machine to restart the openct framework, so i can
press that after inserting the USB device, and then (fingers-crossed)
pam-p11 authentication can continue normally. This shouldn't be
necessary, though.
Another thing worth noting is that /var/run/openct is currently
filling up with status.lock.<pid> files. One new file is added per
device insertion, as well as one per restart of the openct framework.
This leads me to suspect some process dying while holding a lockfile,
but i don't know openct well enough to know what other details to look
for.
Let me know how i can help resolve this,
