[Bug 363584] [NEW] Belgian Electronic ID card is broken beidgui2.6.0-4

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

beid-tools & beidgui 2.6.0-4

Error : Verkeerd Rootcertificaat  (wrong rootcertificate)
With Cherry ST1044U 00 00 card reader and new Belgian ID (as from 31 october 2008) tested wit BEID from februari 2009.
This error occurs because the former softwarepackage  was compromised. The Authority issued a new version oft the software.
Unfortunatly no one @ XUbuntu has updated the package !!!
SmartCard utilities from the OpenSC project, compiled against libbeidlibopensc
This package contains some of the utilities that can be found in the
 opensc package, but compiled against libbeidlibopensc rather than
libopensc.  libbeidlibopensc is libopensc 0.8.1 with additional support
for the Belgian eID card. See the libbeidlibopensc0 package for
details.

The binaries in this package have all been prefixed with 'beid-', so
as to avoid namespace conflicts with the opensc package.

Please read the README.Debian file in the libbeidlibopensc2 package for
information on setting up your system so that it can read from smartcards.

Canonical does not provide updates for beid-tools. Some updates may be provided by the Ubuntu community.
application to read out information from the Belgian electronic ID card
This application allows the user to read out any information from a
 Belgian electronic ID card, by using libbeid and libbeidlibopensc to
read the data from the card and parse it. Both identity information and
information about the stored cryptographic keys can be read in a
user-friendly manner, and can easily be printed out or stored for later
reviewal.

The application verifies the signature of the identity information,
checks whether it was signed by a government-issued key, and optionally
checks the certificate against the government's Certificate Revocation List
(CRL) and/or by using the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) against
the government's servers.

Please read the README.Debian file in the libbeidlibopensc2 package for
information on setting up your system so that it can read from smartcards.

Canonical does not provide updates for beidgui. Some updates may be
provided by the Ubuntu community.
