Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

When using an openvpn configuration which uses a smartcard based authentication via "pkcs11-id" and "pkcs11-providers" the connection fails:

The same problem has been reported upstream at https://github.com/OpenSC/pkcs11-helper/issues/52 which resulted in a fix.

I've downloaded and built pkcs11-helper version 1.29.0 and it fixed the problem indeed.

TLDR: please update pkcs11-helper
