The pcscd daemon simply refuses to work if either HAL or D-Bus is not installed and running. That in itself means that I have to install an additional set of about 23 packages, which makes the whole exercise completely pointless. Until there is a way for me to reduce the number of dependencies (either by using a stripped-down version of pkcs11-tool or find another tool which does the simple job of reading a data token from the smartcard) it won't be possible to embed the smartcard tool into initrd/initramfs. A sad state of affairs! Any ideas anyone? _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
