Package: libchipcard6
Version: 5.0.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Hi,

since pcsc-lite-1.6.0 pcscd deamon would not be started by default.
Instead, libpcsclite will try to start it on SCardEstablishContext().

LC_Client_Start() tries to find chipcard readers invoking
LC_Client_UpdateReaderStates(). Neither LC_Client_Start() nor
LC_Client_UpdateReaderStates() create a communication context before 
looking for readers with SCardListReaders(). As a result, no reader
would be found using default configuration.

I recommend creating a context before SCardListReaders() as suggested
by http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/pcsc-lite/node10.html.

Thanks
