| 1 | OpenSC Release 0.9.6 |

| 2 | ==================== |

| 4 | We are pleased to announce the availability of OpenSC 0.9.6. |
|---|
| 5 | |
|---|
| 6 | This new releases fixes many small issues found in the last six months. |
|---|
| 7 | The bigger changes are: |
|---|
| 8 | - you need to have an opensc.conf config file. On Unix this is |
|---|
| 9 | $(sysconfdir)/opensc.conf depending on your --configure option. |
|---|
| 10 | Users can have their own config file by setting the OPENSC_CONF |
|---|
| 11 | evironment variable. On windows either the registry key |
|---|
| 12 | HKLM\Software\OpenSC\ConfigFile or HKLU\Software\OpenSC\ConfigFile |
|---|
| 13 | needs to be set and point to your config file. |
|---|
| 14 | - your config file needs to have a "profile_dir" setting pointing |
|---|
| 15 | to the installation directory with the "*.profile" files. |
|---|
| 16 | Under Unix/Linux the configure script will create an etc/opensc.conf |
|---|
| 17 | file for your with the right directory in it, simply copy it to |
|---|
| 18 | your $(sysconfdir). |
|---|
| 19 | - There is a new project "smart card bundle" to create a simple windows |
|---|
| 20 | installer package containing OpenSSL, OpenSC and Putty with smart card |
|---|
| 21 | patches, so you can simply download, install, and start using smart cards. |
