Sorry, I did not received your answer. That is not the first time I lose
a mail from the BTS and it is problematic.

That would be a bug in pcscd. I do not use suspend/resume myself. I
would be interested in more inverstigations if you can.

Can you confirm that pcscd does not survive a suspend/resume?
Can you start it as "pcscd --foreground --debug" and suspend/resume to
see some logs or crash?

Yes. But that is not what your NMU is doing.
It may not be a good idea to remove $PIDFILE and $PUBFILE instead of
letting pcscd do it itself.

I just uploaded a new version with a different /etc/init.d/pcscd file
I tested it using
$ sudo kill -9 $(cat /var/run/pcscd.pid) # to simulate a crash
$ sudo /etc/init.d/pcscd start

Note that I could reproduce the bug you had. So I would be really happy
do know why pcscd crashed and correct the bug instead of finding ways to
ignore it.

Thanks
