Comment 3 for bug 74209

I have concluded that my problems are directly related to gpg-agent. I removed it.

pcscd is still running, scdaemon is not, gpg-agent is gone.

i can scan my card via gpg --card-status and login still works.

furthermore, i can pcsc_scan in the background, and login still works.

There is a new version of pam_poldi ( 0.4 ) available for the brave:

I got bored and gave up after 4 hours. Compilation wasn't the problem, it was the configuration and debugging.

It's supposed to use scdaemon for the backend, as opposed to checking a more difficult way. I was not able to
conclude if this resolves the bug.
