The easy way is to continue running pcscd as root and start it on
boot. It should work as before.
The hard way is to configure your system to use the auto-start
feature. But for that to work you need a correctly configured system.
See

As you can see setting pcscd in auto start mode is more complex. This
can be done at a GNU distribution level by coordinating all the
packages.
