Dist Fedora Esm H88
The recent Fedora 29 pcsc-lite update addresses memory leak issues and allows for automatic service start upon installation, enhancing overall efficiency.
New upstream release including the security fix and enabling autostart of the service upon install

Summary

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.
