On old system I see that `pcscd` group GID was 145.

So the simple command below will fix the issue:

```
sudo groupadd -g 145 pcscd
```

You are right, but they share the same source package https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/focal/pcsc-cyberjack .

For me here the main question is - which application creates `pcscd` group first time?
Or it should be created by user manually on first time.

The 'pcscd' group was used in a previous/old version of pcsc-lite.
It should not be used anymore.
