Description Anton Bolshakov 2018-04-09 23:38:50 UTC
I plugged a new USB smartcard reader recently and hit the following problem:

First of all, the description in the pkg_postinstall is not accurate:
pkg_postinst() {
        elog "Starting from version 1.6.5, pcsc-lite will start as user nobody in"
        elog "the pcscd group, to avoid running as root."

it must be "will start as user pcscd"


Secondly, the same user must be in the "plugdev" group in order to fix the problem above.

Comment 1 Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-04-10 09:35:29 UTC
The mechanism is different... the reader driver should mark with udev that pcsc should have access, we do not want pcscd to have access to all devices.

See example in ccid[1], then the pcsc rules sets the group, see [2]

Comment 2 Anton Bolshakov 2018-04-10 12:37:04 UTC
ok, thanks, I didn't know it.

I can see that my smartcard reader (08e6:3437) is not in that list.

Can you help to include it?

Comment 4 Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-04-10 19:11:36 UTC
Normally, there is no need to add specific usb device.

Your bInterfaceClass is 0x0b, which is generic, the following rule should apply, please try to find out what went wrong:

---
# generic CCID device (bInterfaceClass = 0x0b)
# change group from default "root" to "pcscd"
ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACES}=="*:0b0000:*", ENV{PCSCD}="1"
---
Comment 5 Anton Bolshakov 2018-04-11 02:03:59 UTC
ok, I found the problem. The package app-crypt/ccid wasn't installed when I hit this problem.

Shouldn't it be a dependency of pcsc-lite (or sys-apps/pcsc-tools)?
Comment 6 Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-04-11 04:45:20 UTC
ccid is the driver for *your* smartcard, there are other drivers.
