DNIe: Dealing with the electronic ID card

Although this has already been discussed previously , I wanted to give another lap to the issue DNIe under Linux. And what the hell! After spending one day and a half on the subject, I wanted to leave the tutorial available somewhere, if I have to do it again.

When I started I was recommended that I tried on Windows first and then if it works, I should try again on Linux. And although I followed the advice, it turns out I am definitely worse in Windows than in Linux (I ended up having to reinstall Windows again), so I tried again where I felt comfortable and understood what I do.

Basically I have been following this three blog posts:
* DNIe on Ubuntu
*
Linux DNIe Squeeze
*
DNIe on Ubuntu

Check your base libraries

The first thing I discovered is that one should not rely on the libraries from the repositories (I use Debian Squeeze). So I installed bare hands OpenSC and its dependencies.

First thing to do is to download the latest libraries available on the website of dnielectronico, in my case:

$ wget https://www.dnielectronico.es/descargas/PKCS11_para_Sistemas_Unix/opensc-dnie_1.4.8_amd64_lenny.tar 
 $ tar xvf opensc-dnie_1.4.8_amd64_lenny.tar
 $ cd opensc-dnie_1.4.8_amd64_lenny 

And also download the dependencies that are no longer available for Debian Squeeze:

$ wget https://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libt/libtool/libltdl3_1.5.26-4+lenny1_amd64.deb

$ wget https://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/openct/libopenct1_0.6.14-3_amd64.deb 

Installing the dnie drivers

When this is done, we can begin to install the dnie drivers:

 # dpkg-i *. deb libltdl3

# dpkg-i *. deb libopenct

# dpkg-i *. deb libopensc2

# dpkg-i *. deb opensc_

# apt-get install pinentry-qt4

# dpkg-i *. deb opensc-dnie 

And then we make sure not to screw it in future updates, blocking the libraries:

 # echo libopenct1 hold | dpkg - set-selections

# echo opensc hold | dpkg - set-selections

# echo libopensc2 hold | dpkg - set-selections 

Now comes the nice part, where we see that everything works … or not:

 $ sudo apt-get install pcscd pcsc-tools

$ pcsc_scan

Not that easy

At this point, we learn that we have screwed up somewhere in the installation. Now OpenSC is waiting for a version of the module that is not what we have installed. Do not panic, there is a solution . We “only” have to create a module that uses the module installed. But deceiving OpenSC by saying it is another version.

My module version is 1.0.4 and opensc the 0.11.13-1.1, you must change this numbers with yours:

 $ mkdir / tmp / dnie
 $ cd / tmp / dnie
 $ cp / usr/lib/libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4 libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4_orig

Edit a file:

 $ vi patch.c
 char * version_maligna = "0.11.13-1.1";
 sc_driver_version char * () {
 version_maligna return;
 }

Patching the library and place it where it belongs:

$ gcc-fpic -g-c-Wall patch.c

$ objcopy - redefine-sym-libopensc sc_driver_version = orig_sc_driver_version libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4 dnie.so.1.0.4_orig

$ chmod + x libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4

$ gcc-shared-Wl,-soname, libwrapper-dnie.so libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4 patch.o-o-dnie.so.1.0.0 libwrapper

$ sudo cp-dnie.so.1.0.0 libwrapper libopensc-dnie.so.1.0.4 / usr / lib

$ sudo ldconfig

Now that we have the library, we make opensc to use it in the file / etc / opensc / opensc.conf, replacing module = / usr / lib / libopensc-dnie.so, by < em> module = / usr / lib / libwrapper-dnie.so, .

Now opensc recognizes our electronic ID:

$ opensc-tool -l Known Readers about: Driver Name Nr Pcsc 0 00 00 Gemplus Twin GemPC

How to use the browser or an application to sign has already been extensively described in other manuals, including the official pages of the electronic ID.
