Which of our tools is giving you problems?

Mac command link version gpg

Attach a screenshot of the version info for all installed components (how to: https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/faq/where-can-i-find-version-info...):

MotherShip:~ akira$ gpg --card-status
gpg: selecting openpgp failed: Operation not supported by device
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: Operation not supported by device

Describe your problem. Add as much detail as possible.

PGPCard access stopped working with MacOSX 10.13.1 (17B48)
