Did someone already start creating an ebuild for AusweisApp?
It will be needed for reading the new German Personalausweis.

Well, we have the 2nd of November, and the App is announced to be released at November the 9th.

(You did not try to use one of the Download Links, which do nothing, right?)

..you can extract the Ausweis deb file with ar -x <name of the deb file>
then extract the archives:
gunzip control.tar.gz
tar -xf control.tar
bunzip data.tar.bz2
tar -xf data.tar

change the owner of the data content to root:
chown -R root.root ./opt
chown -R root.root ./usr
and move the ./usr and ./opt files top /usr and /opt

Now check the files from control.tar. (at least postinst).
You could execute this script (with source postinst) but i would recommend:
Edit the file: Leave the chmod commands and delete the (if then parts which delete things [ i did the deletions too...but i am stupid])

now you can start the app with : /opt/olsc/AusweisApp/bc.sh

If you have a card reader you can try the same with the pcscd...deb file. I assume the pcscd files might have something to do with the card readers.

Could you create an ebuild with it?
