Here is a patch to add Appstream metainfo XML announcing the hardware
handled by this package.

Including this information in the package will ensure programs mapping
hardware to packages using Appstream information, like the isenkram
package, will know that this package is useful on machines where the USB
IDs are discovered.

I guess the USB IDs you want to add are:
vendor 0x20A0 product 0x4107
vendor 0x0B97 product 0x7772
*ic0Bisc00ip* (I have no idea how to parse that)

It looks like vendor 0x20A0 is Flirc
and 0x0B97 is O2Micro, Inc.

Why add only these 2 devices?


pcscd itself does NOT support any reader. You need to install one (or more) 
driver(s).
The "default" driver is libccid and has support for 679 readers
https://ccid.apdu.fr/select_readers/?section%E2%89%A0disabled&section%E2%89%A0unsupported

Maybe the Appstream metainfo for pcscd should contain only the USB class 11 
(CCID devices).

All recent USB readers are CCID now.

What should I do?

Bye
