Dear Ludovic and all, pcsc-lite 1.8.2-1 is now part of Debian Testing, which means that pcsc-lite may be submitted to Debian Squeeze backports [1].
This will ease the life of a lot of Debian Squeeze. We started working on a backport for Squeeze including other software like OpenSC [2]. Most of the work is building a complete compilation farm for pcsc-lite, libccid and OpenSC. A recent change in pcsc-lite packaging requires a recent version of dpkg-dev >= 1.16.1 . dpkg-dev 1.16.1 is not included in Squeeze but is in Squeeze backports. Therefore could you add dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1~) to the build-dep dependency in the source packge, control file: Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0.50~), flex, autotools-dev, libudev-dev [linux-any], libusb2-dev [kfreebsd-any], pkg-config, dpkg-dev, dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1~) According to packagers [3], it is better to fix the build-dep dependency upstream rather than submit a package with only a small change. If you agree with this Build-depends change, please ping me and we will submit pcsc-lite to Debian backports and to you for review. Then we propose to submit and maintain the backports packages. Kind regards, Jean-Michel [1] http://backports-master.debian.org/ [2] http://lists.debian.org/debian-backports/2012/03/msg00024.html [3] http://lists.debian.org/debian-backports/2012/03/msg00033.html -- Jean-Michel Pouré - Gooze - http://www.gooze.eu
