Public bug reported: Binary package hint: opensc
Hello, OpenSC smartcard and token framework depends on either pcsc+ccid AND/OR openct. OpenCT subsystem is mainly for proprietary hardware. The problem is that when OpenSC is configured with OpenCT, OpenCT will access the card in single mode. Therefore OpenSC reports 'card not present' or other errors messages. The solution would be to make OpenSC not depend on OpenCT package. Therefore if a use would like to remove OpenCT package, it is possible.

If possible, in a near future after submitting patches, I would like to take over maintenance of pcsc, ccid and opensc packages to publish the latest packages. What is required to become maintainer? Should I create a lauchpad project?
