Package: gnupg
Version: 1.4.2-2
Severity: normal
After the change in libusb described in bug #336596, gnupg now opens my
CCID USB card
reader as /dev/bus/usb/x/y instead of /proc/bus/usb/x/y
Unfortunately, the script suggested by the "GnuPG Smartcard Howto"
chgrp's the file under /proc/bus/usb/
Bottom line, the card reader only works as root unless you manually
chgrp the correct /dev/usbdevx.y device. According to 336596 again, udev
should not change /dev/usbdevx.y permissions hence this leaves gnupg as
"culprit", so to speak. I am going to do just that as a temporary fix,
but I have a feeling this
is not a proper solution.

Closing then. Thanks for the update!
