And if you hardcode it, only root is able to install libchipcard. That's 
even worse.
Please either add an option for changing the path (so non-root installs 
can use a different path) or make installation of the init script 
optional (it's of no use in those cases anyway). But just hardcoding the 
path will cause non-root installations to break (i.e. abort).
