I'm using UbuntuStudio1404. Working from :
https://www.gnupg.org/howtos/card-howto/en/smartcard-howto-single.html I completed the steps in 2.3.1 using the section "With udev (preferred installation)". I took it that the following stuff under the heading "With hotplug (deprecated in modern systems)" was a deprecated alternative. Was this the correct assumption ? In any case, when I ran the test in 3.1, clearly the system cannot see the card - I get the following : gpg --card-status gpg: selecting openpgp failed: ec=6.108 gpg: OpenPGP card not available: general error Looking into the directory /etc/udev/rules.d/, I found a README with the following - "The files in this directory are read by udev(7) and used when events are performed by the kernel. The udev daemon watches this directory with inotify so that changes to these files are automatically picked up, for this reason they must be files and not symlinks to another location as in the case in Debian." so I tried replacing the link created during section 2.3.1 of the howto webpage with a file. But the result is the same. Have I misinterpreted the steps in 2.3.1 ? -Philip
