RHBA-2011:0765 - coolkey bug fix update


Synopsis

coolkey bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated coolkey package that fixes a bug is now available.

Description

The coolkey package contains driver support for CoolKey and Common Access Card (CAC) smart card products.

This updated coolkey package fixes the following bug:

  • Previous versions of coolkey would fail to operate correctly if the pcscd daemon in the pcsc-lite package was restarted. Proper operation could be restored by restarting the application which was using coolkey, for example, the Gnome screensaver or the Gnome login screen when used with a smart card login. With this update, applications no longer need to be restarted to function properly when the pcscd daemon is restarted. (BZ#210200)

All users of coolkey are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves this issue.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
