I am running pcscd inside an LXC container (container is buster, host is
jessie). There is no problem when starting pcscd from command line: it creates
the socket. The problem appears when started by systemd. As already said it is
easy to reproduce: pcsc_scan doesn't work.

The socket is only created when SocketMode=0666 is set, otherwise there is no
socket in /var/run/pcscd. May be it is a special behavior of systemd in LXC
containers.
