The group I plan to use will be named "pcscd" instead of "scard" and is designed to be used by the pcscd process only and not by a normal user.
GnuPG implements its own and direct CCID driver. I think this is an error. GnuPG can also use the PC/SC API as any other (normal) smart card application. Using a direct access to the smart card reader is not the way I (as pcsc-lite and libccid maintainer) want to go. So this bug will never be fixed by me (or in Debian).
