       fig_file=${HOME}/.pkcs11_eventmgr.conf

BUGS
       Some  PKCS#11  Libraries	fails on card removal and re-insert.  to avoid
       this, pkcs11_eventmgr try to re-initialize stuff	 by  calling  C_Final-
       ize() and C_Initialize()	on card	removal
       Some apps like [xscreensaver-command] may fail due to external events (
       eg:  try	to unlock an unlocked session ).  In this case,	command	incor-
       rectly returns error code.
       User shoult take	care on	this circumstance
