Package: opensc
Version: 0.11.13-1.1
Severity: important

Greetings,

Noticing that browsing with Iceweasel 3.5 / Firefox 4 became unbearably
slow, I dug a little bit and found out that the culprit was none other
than opensc taking forever to find my (plugged in) reader.

$ time opensc-tool -l
[opensc-tool] reader-pcsc.c:906:pcsc_detect_readers:
SCardEstablishContext failed: 0x8010001d [opensc-tool]
reader-pcsc.c:1015:pcsc_detect_readers: returning with: No readers
found Readers known about: Nr.    Driver     Name
0      openct     Aladdin eToken PRO 64k
1      openct     OpenCT reader (detached)

real    0m4.911s
user    0m0.004s
sys     0m0.000s

Running it through strace, I noticed the following:

stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0
stat64("/var/run/pcscd/pcscd.comm", 0xbfe4d8cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory) nanosleep({0, 100000000}, NULL)         = 0

My issue was solved by installing pcscd, but I believe pcscd should be
at least listed as a "Recommends:" for the opensc package, or opensc 
should not take that much time trying to find this nonexistent file 
(my reader worked fine without pcscd)

Thanks !
