Hello Dimitri,

as Eduardo also pointed out the ep11 lib is not causing this problem.
In a comment before I already mentioned where the CCA and EP11 libraries come from, please take into account.

As already pointed out that library is distributed by IBM.
system # find / -name libep11.so
/usr/lib/libep11.so
system # dpkg -S /usr/lib/libep11.so
libep11: /usr/lib/libep11.so
system # dpkg -l libep11

This is not true, I just cross-checked that Ubuntu 16.04.04 ( ) works with by the default configured CCA and EP11 tokens in the opencryptoki.conf file, when libep11 and csulcca are not installed. In that case one syslog entry per library appears to inform about that fact, which is not a problem.

... Ubuntu 16.04.04 ( 4.4.0-124-generic ) that is.
