Hello,

> recently the arch package for pcsclite changed their PKGBUILD to build pcsclite with polkit support:

The --disable-polkit runtime option has been added 2 months ago in the
source code.

This option is not yet available in a released version of pcsc-lite.
Maybe that is a good motivation for a new release?
