Hi,

I can no more use my Yubikey with GPG aftre recent changes. I
followed
https://wiki.debian.org/Smartcards/OpenPGP instructions but nothing succeeded.
I'm running a Debian testing.

Did someone find a solution ?

Yes I did: sudo apt purge pcscd

Turns out you do not need pcscd to use the Yubikey's PGP applet.
On the contrary: I now have way less hassle/issues and it works like a
charm all the time.

Colleagues had to delete their ~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf though for this
to work (I did not have that file on my systems).

Best wishes

Generally it's sufficient to temporarily stop pcscd. But also
disable-ccid and pcsc-shared in scdaemon.conf should help.

(Not that I'm claiming that this is good UX.)

Kind regards
