Name : pcsc-lite
Product : Fedora 14
Version : 1.6.4
Release : 4.fc14

Summary : PC/SC Lite smart card framework and applications
Description :
The purpose of PC/SC Lite is to provide a Windows(R) SCard interface
in a very small form factor for communicating to smartcards and
readers. PC/SC Lite uses the same winscard API as used under
Windows(R). This package includes the PC/SC Lite daemon, a resource
manager that coordinates communications with smart card readers and
smart cards that are connected to the system, as well as other command
line tools.

Update Information:
This update corrects a problem with the pcsc-lite daemon (pcscd) that caused it to flood system log files with repeating "rv=0x... for client" and "Card Not Inserted" messages under certain workloads.
