+This package provides opensc support for Spanish ID cards.
+
+Unfortunately, the developer (Spanish Govt.) does not provide the source code
+for this software, but only binary packages for certain distributions.
+Therefore, we just repackage the official binaries for Debian.
+
+If you use firefox, you must manually register /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so
+(or /usr/lib64/opensc-pkcs11.so) as a security device in firefox.
+
+This requires pcsc-lite, pcsc-tools, pcsc-perl, ccid, openct, and opensc.
+
+Note: opensc-0.11.7 is shown as a required dependency according to the
+upstream author of this software; your mileage may vary, especially since
+we (SlackBuilds.org) currently have a newer version than that, and we
+probably won't be reverting it in order to satisfy the requirements of
+a binary-only package.
