I think I found the problem.
I think my system disagrees. :)
In my case "gpg --card-status" works only if pcscd is NOT running. GnuPG has its own way to access the smart card readers (here a yubikey)
Its a yubikey here too.
I propose two possible solutions: 1. remove pcscd from your system but that is a drastic change. No PC/SC application will work any more.
Not a good thing, it's there for a reason. And I know it worked in stretch.
2. configure scdaemon to NOT use its internal CCID driver but use the PC/SC interface instead
To make option 2 just edit/create the scdaemon configuration file as bellow: $ cat ~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf disable-ccid
Done that. Doesn't do anything. Logged out. Killed gpg agent (just in case). Rebooted (damn system, maybe). Nope, nothing. Same behaviour as before. -- bye, Joerg
