Hence the need for a backport.
Yup, I needed smart card packages for my own purposes and Tails had already been interested in supporting this. >OK. I suggest kindly asking the maintainer of these two Debian >packages to prepare and upload updated versions to squeeze-backports: I just emailed Ludovic and CC'd you. A squeeze-backport would definitely be the right solution until Wheezy is here. I'll try my hand at it if Ludovic doesn't respond. As Clean Room develops hopefully we can merge some of the work from that back into tails. I know I will use the pcscd packages in Tails for pgp mail when I don't have access to my own computer.
