Is the DNIe (electronic ID) of my country only compatible with DEB and RPM, will I not be able to use it with EOS?

Hi friends.

I hate having to use the DNIe (electronic ID), but it is becoming mandatory here in Spain, so I am going to buy a USB electronic card reader.

The problem is that it doesn’t work just by connecting the USB, you have to install some “drivers”. And on the National Police website, they are only available for DEB and RPM:

As always, these government sites leave Arch aside and forgotten… (And I only use EOS and I don’t want to have another OS next to EOS)

So, there is no way to make my Arch read these cards to access Official State websites?

Unfortunately this is very important because here you need to electronically certify almost everything.

Thank you in advance for your time and effort friends.
