Hi all,
I run GnuPG 2.2.27 on Windows 10 and gpg-agent + ssh-pageant (from Cygwin)
with Yubikey NEO for my SSH needs.
For some time now, gpg-agent has problems detecting my Yubikey. Windows
sometimes detects Yubikey as "Unknown Smart Card" and I used to resort to
manually updating the driver to get it recognised as "Identity Device (NIST SP
800-73 [PIV])" and then reinserting my Yubikey a few times until gpg
--card-status command recognised Yubikey. This used to "hold" between computer
reboots, but lately has been happening almost every time I reinsert Yubikey NEO.
To avoid furiously reinserting the key and risk breaking something, I wrote a
small PowerShell function that does this (kill scdaemon, restart Windows Smart
Card service and try reading card status):
do {
& gpgconf --kill scdaemon
Restart-Service SCardSvr
& gpg --card-status -vvv
} while ($LASTEXITCODE -ne 0)
This usually works after a few loops. I have both Yubikey NEO and Yubikey 5
and both have the same problem.
My scdaemon.conf has a single line:
card-timeout 1
I tried debugging scdaemon a bit, so I added these lines to scdaemon.conf:
log-file <path to log file>
debug-level basic
verbose
After killing scdaemon.exe and running gpg --card-status, I get:

When I run my "fixing" loop, I'll get a few of these blocks and then a success.
Recently, I tried upgrading to GnuPG 2.3.4 and my "fixing" loop does not work
at all. Debugging scdaemon with Yubikey NEO, I get something like this:

If I add "psc-shared" option to scdaemon.conf and use Yubikey 5, gpg
--card-status works every time, but I still get "no supported card application
found: Card error" for Yubikey NEO.
Is there any way to get Yubikey NEO working with GnuPG 2.3?
Thank you,
