NAME

update-reader.conf - (re)generate /etc/reader.conf  

SYNOPSIS

update-reader.conf [force]  

DESCRIPTION

update-reader.conf is a simple tool to manage /etc/reader.conf. The PCSC daemon (pcscd) uses one configuration file for its configuration. This makes it hard for packages to dynamically add information about their own smart card reader drivers. To fix this update-reader.conf has been introduced.

update-reader.conf attempts to fix this by generating the configuration file from seperate files which are located in /etc/reader.conf.d/. All files in that directory are assembled together to form /etc/reader.conf.  

FILES

update-reader.conf will only use files that match the following wildcard: *.conf.
