I could finally test ubuntu gutsy and found out: it is broken,
hotplugging usb smart card reader does not work.

the problem is simple: /dev/bus/usb/* has device files in ubuntu gutsy,
but /proc/bus/usb is an empty directory. the kernel event gives us a file
name in /proc/bus/usb :(

the proper fix is to ask udev "which device file did you create for the parent 
event"
and then use that file name. this was implemented in openct 0.6.14 and works 
fine
and has been tested by a several people on several distribution.

so beside a changelog entry I replaced etc/openct_usb.in with the openct 0.6.14 
file
and now it works fine. attached is a diff. could someone please compile/upload 
a new
openct package with this fix?
