On my leap 15.0 with kde I’m trying to install USB smart card reader digicom 8E4479 SCR-C01.
Following the digicom instruction I downloaded this 8E4479_LinuxEzUsb.tar.gz from here http://www.digicom.it/digisit/driver_link.nsf/driverprodotto?openform&prodotto=SmartCardReader
unpacked, cd into the directory 8E4479_LinuxEzUsb/EZUSB_Linux_x86_64_v1.5.3/driver_ezusb_v1.5.3_for_64_bit and launched the:

that says OK! but with the error on the top “pcscd: command not found”
then run the install

so it seems that doesn’t works, and the led on the reader didn’t turn red

may be that can help, the readme file has this note:

4. After reboot, insert a card. If the led of the reader turns red, the installation
      of EZUSB driver is successful.

   Notice: 1. The recommaned version of kernel is 2.4 or higher.
           2. If you have installed EZUSB driver v1.3.4 or lower, please reinstall it first
              before executing "install" program.
          To uninstall v1.3.4 or lower, remove the settings of EZUSB driver in the
              /etc/reader.conf.
           3. The driver requires PCSCLITE with being building with libusb. If PCSCLITE built
              with libhal, the driver will not work.

have you any suggestion on how to have the smart card reader working??

It seems SOLVED!!lol!
I don’t know why and how, as any change was suggested to reboot verywindowslike ] reading somewhere and after, if I remember well, the installation of pcsc-lite-devel and another couple of packages and a link in

/usr/lib64/readers/ that point to /usr/lib64/readers/drivers/ezusb.bundle/ 
(that is where the unpacked install script in 8E4479_LinuxEzUsb/EZUSB_Linux_x86_64_v1.5.3/driver_ezusb_v1.5.3_for_64_bit coming from digicom installed something that I supposed could be the driver ezusb)
containing this 
/drivers/ezusb.bundle/Contents/info.plist
drivers/ezusb.bundle/Contents/Linux/ezusb.so

the resulting installed packages are:

Package                   

libpcsclite1              
libpcsclite1-32bit        
libpcscspy0

pcsc-openct               

opensc                    

libgusb2

libusbmuxd4               
libusbredirhost1          
libusbredirparser1

and the result output now is:
