Apologies for the mis-information. I should have checked more carefully. > > So, given this I don't really see why pcsc-lite support would need to > be disabled. I guess you mean linking against it dynamically again instead of dlopen Personally I don't use pcscd and it's still a recommends so another daemon will be pulled in automatically when installing network-manager resp. wpasupplicant, which isn't so nice given the majority of users most likely will not use it.
