Package: pcscd Version: 1.8.13-1 Severity: important I am using an ACS card reader with openpgp smart card. It was working until I rebooted, and then gnupg stopped recognising the card. Restarting pcscd with the ACS reader plugged in fixed the problem, and the fix persists even after I unplug/replug the usb reader.
The symptoms and workaround appear identical to this fedora bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1092207 I noticed the same behaviour with the ordering of card readers before and after pcscd restarts that the fedora OP reports: agallagher@itchy:~$ gpg2 --card-status gpg: selecting openpgp failed: Card not present gpg: OpenPGP card not available: Card not present agallagher@itchy:~$ opensc-tool -l # Detected readers (pcsc) Nr.
