Comment 9 for bug 495410

the cause is change 3401 between 0.11.4 and 0.11.5. reverting it will get your cards to work for now.

however we still need to analyse the situation. I guess the change is correct. the new code will properly encode information on the cards. however the fixed format is incompatible with the old one, thus new code can't handle old cards and vice versa. in that case we
need extra code to detect cards initialized with old code, and decode the "broken" format on the old cards so they work again with new code. and a tool to convert old cards from broken to correct format.

discussion takes place on opensc-devel mailing list., will update this entry once we know what exactly is going on and how we can handle it.
