pcsc-lite-1.4.102.ebuild.diff

This version requires hal, the udev option was partially dropped. I don't like this solution.

The patch you did? the requiring of hal? the dropping of udev?

The requiring of hal for such low level component.
The dropping of udev was done because the author did not know to deal with unplug, but I found a solution for this.

Then I had some issues with fork()... solved and merged this too...
And when I had some issues with software suspend (threading) I gave up and switched to openct.
I guess with some effort I can reintroduce the udev support and merge this to upstream.
