development library to read identity information from the Belgian eID card

 The Belgian electronic ID card contains two types of data: on the one
 hand, there's the X.509 keys that can be used by the owner of the card
 to perform authentication and to make digital signatures; on the other
 hand, the card contains digital versions of the identity information,
 digitally signed by the government.
 .
 This library allows the user to read out the identity information, to
 verify the signature, and to verify its certificate against an online
 CRL or similar technology.
 .
 To read out the X.509 keys, please see the libbeidlibopensc2 package.
 .
 This package contains the development files for libbeid2.
 .
 Please read the README.Debian file in the libbeidlibopensc2 package for
 information on setting up your system so that it can read from smartcards.
