Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pcsc-omnikey

The original drivers from the manufacturer's site contain among other things a 
script that is called from the udev rules file.
Namely the inappropriately named ok_pcscd_hotplug.sh.
According to the driver's installation procedure this file is to be copied into 
the /lib/udev directory.
The /etc/udev/rules.d/z98_omnikey.rules contains request to run this script 
upon detecting any of the supported usb readers.
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ... ACTION=="add", RUN+="ok_pcscd_hotplug.sh"

Without this file the USB reader is not detected when inserted, and a
manual reload/restart of the pcscd is required, that requires
administrative privileges.

Looking at the script it seems to make some effort to call pcscd
--hotplug, that forces detection of the newly inserted reader.

Please either add this file to the package, or rework the rules file to
call pcscd --hotplug.

Ubuntu Lucid x64.
pcsc-omnikey version 1:3-2ubuntu1
