Fedora version bump again. No changes to functionality.

Simnol: It seems the source from that link doesn't patch cleanly into Fedora upstream. I'd be willing to include a patch if you come up with a workable one.

This sort of works for me, but not after the initial slot, thanks to unavailable support for my key, see here:

https://github.com/Vanuan/coolkey

I can have a go at writing my own build if needed, but wondered if you'd like to incorporate this before I do?

Updated to the new URL (No changes in the package, other than a Fedora version bump). Thanks, Camio.

The source is no longer where it is defined above. I was able to upgrade this package manually by going with 'http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/c/coolkey-1.1.0-26.fc22.src.rpm'.

Sorry for the uploads in quick succession - It looks like something (makefile deps. probably) is broken; disabling parallel make seems to fix it.

I'll take this on, since I use it.

Current version is 1.1.0-24.

pastebin by abruptadieu has link that doesn't work, here is a link that does:

http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/17/Everything/source/SRPMS/c/coolkey-1.1.0-20.fc17.src.rpm

(the link in the pastebin is missing the '/archive' path) everything else seems to be fine.

Someone needs to since this hasn't been updated in awhile. I'll post to the mailing list about this being orphaned.

New PKGBUILD, should work:

I'd be willing to maintain this.

Cannot build this package as is, nor with the pastebin changes below. I am getting 404 errors when trying to download the src rpm.

Fixed source URLs, 19 is from fc15 and 20 (which I'm using) is from fc17a:

There's another bug that was introduced with the CAC patches, which results in pkcs11_listcerts not requesting for the Activkey PIN. We're addressing it over here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688837 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coolkey/+bug/888185

there's a bug in coolkey preventing some cards with certificates in slot 0 to work, see:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coolkey/+bug/786682

I made a patch according to the discussion above:

and an updated PKGBUILD:

works well, appreciate you packaging it.

@theflyingfool
Thanks for the heads up. It was failing the MD5 hash. The version number is the same on the fedora download site, but the MD5 had changed. The package is now updated and should compile fine now.

Whoops, wrong URL in my PKGBUILD. the correct URL is in buckethead's comment below.

It builds just fine for me from the following PKGBUILD:
http://aur.pastebin.com/3mg9yARd

I suspect the fedora-compiled binary won't work well on a non-red-hat-based system for a number of reasons.

It installs okay now, but I can't get firefox to load it... I'll have do do a bit of research on the fedora page.

Thanks buckethead. Updating the PKGBUILD now.

Great work, n17ikh.
your PKGBUILD works perfectly and I updated the package from it.

I also want to add, that DOD smartcard users may want to switch to cackey instead of coolkey. coolkey DOES still work for DOD cards (I'm using mine right now), but cackey is newer and is specifically implimented for DOD common access cards. Currently, you will need a working CAC card in order to download the cackey software, so you will need to either use another computer to get it or use coolkey first and then switch to cackey.

OK, I *think* I've ironed out all the issues. Give the following PKGBUILD a shot:

Whoops, that was the wrong link. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626029 is the correct bug.

Actually, it looks like there is a patch available: see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=534172 . Tomorrow I will be incorporating it into my source pkgbuild. Also, the binary pkgbuild broke a test machine's firefox to the point of having to uninstall the plugin via pacman to get firefox to start again (or use a different profile).

It turns out the redhat guys have been updating this package and not putting their sources back in upstream. I tried to make a PKGBUILD out of their source and patches and it compiled as of about a week ago but then something in a library or GCC changed and now it no longer works. Therefore, I have built a (probably not very good) binary PKGBUILD here:
http://aur.pastebin.com/ntsFBaWU
The point of this is to get this thing working with the new 144k smart cards.
(Also the original package no longer builds thanks to whatever change broke the source.)
