+- Updated to version 1.8.9
+  * SCardEndTransaction(): Return an error if is called with no
+    corresponding SCardBeginTransaction()
+  * SCardGetAttrib(): Add support of SCARD_ATTR_DEVICE_SYSTEM_NAME
+  * SCardGetAttrib(): Fix bug in SCARD_ATTR_DEVICE_FRIENDLY_NAME
+  * SCardBeginTransaction() was not correctly releasing a mutex when
+    the hCard handle was invalidated. The problem was that
+    SCardGetStatusChange() was blocked because SCardBeginTransaction()
+    had not released the context mutex.
+  * PCSC/reader.h: Use C99 flexible array member
+    The structures PIN_MODIFY_STRUCTURE and PIN_VERIFY_STRUCTURE now
+    use a C99 flexible array member when available for abData field.
+    uint8_t abData[];
+  * Add support of --reader-name-no-serial and --reader-name-no-interface
+    It is now possible to NOT add the USB serial number of the reader
+    using --reader-name-no-serial
+    It is now possible to NOT add the CCID interface name of the reader
+    using --reader-name-no-interface
+  * Add support of serialconfdir pkg-config variable
+    It is now possible to use pkg-config to get the directory used by
+    pcscd to fetch serial drivers configurations.
+    $ pkg-config libpcsclite --variable=serialconfdir
+    /etc/reader.conf.d
+  * pcsc-spy: Try to display the thread in the order they appear in the log
+  * pcsc-spy: Add SCARD_ATTR_DEVICE_SYSTEM_NAME
+  * Check the Info.plist file is (a minimum) correct
+  * Update PROTOCOL_VERSION_MINOR from 2 to 3
+    We broke the API between version 1.8.3 and 1.8.4 by changing the
+    value of MAX_READERNAME. This change should have been made before
+    releasing version 1.8.4 to make mix of versions clearly non working
+    instead of failing with strange errors.
+  * hotplug_libudev.c: Fix a memory leak in case of error
+  * Fix OpenBSD 5.2 compilation regarding dlopen
+  * correctly manage thread safe multi-slot readers
+  * Do not use pthread_atfork() any more (fix problem on FreeBSD)
+  * fix memory leaks.
+    This was not really a problem unless you embedd pcscd in another
+    process and do init/deinit pcscd without exiting the process (as
+    maybe used on Android or iOS).
+  * pcscd.8 manpage: add documentation for --max-thread,
+    --max-card-handle-per-thread, --max-card-handle-per-reader,
+    --force-reader-polling, --error, --critical and --color
+  * Some other minor improvements and bug corrections
