OpenPGP SmartCard stuff on Debian

How to - https://www.gnupg.org/howtos/card-howto/en/ch01.html
You need a recent version of GnuPg - https://www.gnupg.org/download/ (needs a few extra things: gtk2-dev and some other -dev packages that it will complain about during compiling)
Gnome keyring does something with GnuPGP. How to disable that - http://blog.josefsson.org/2015/01/02/openpgp-smartcards-and-gnome/
gpg2 --card-status fails

 * PC/SC OPEN failed: no service
 * Solution: add "use-standard-socket" to ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gnupg/users/55688

gpg2 --card-status still fails

 * gpg: selecting openpgp failed: Card error
 * gpg: OpenPGP card not available: Card error

GRRRRRRRRRR
