Hello Ludovic,
 Thank you for doing that. Just to let you know that what is preventing
this package from being included in Fedora is the unclear license of
some components. From [0], I think the most serious is:
smartcard/Observer.py
smartcard/Synchronization.py
  taken from http://mindview.net/Books/TIPython; I didn't see a license
  at first glance.

However also:
smartcard/ClassLoader.py
  taken from the Python Cookbook.  The provided URL indicates the "psf"
  license which I believe we call "Python", but I'm not certain.

may be relevant, as the PSF license can make PySCard GPL-incompatible
( https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#PythonOld ).
