SmartCard utilities/libraries for PKCS#11/15 compatible cards
-This package provides a set of libraries and utilities to access smart
-cards. Its main focus is on cards that support cryptographic operations,
-and facilitate their use in security applications such as mail encryption,
-authentication, and digital signature. OpenSC implements the PKCS#11
-API so applications supporting this API such as Mozilla Firefox and
-Thunderbird can use it. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15 standard and aims
-to be compatible with every software that does so, too.

Beware! Smartcards have usually a limited number of times you may try a
wrong PIN/PUK combination before they become inoperable/permanently
blocked. You have been warned!
-Since version 0.12.0, only one reader subsystem can be used and compiled
-in at the same time. The PCSC-LITE subsystem is used by default and it is
-suitable for most smartcards. If you need the OPENCT subsystem instead,
-you have to pass "OPENCT=1" to the script when building and have the
-optional dependency openct installed.
