All drivers are installed and according to pcsctest the reader is connected correctly. I am stuck at the following step: when trying to add the user in the aqbanking-setup, i click on type "chipcard" and immediatly the assistant disappears without any further options, warnings, errors. And of course, no user is added.

If it doesn't (and it crashed Gnucash when I tried it, but I don't have a chipcard reader), open a bug in Bugzilla against Gnucash:aqbanking and attach the relevant tail of your gnucash.trace. If it crashes, you'll find a crash report in (Your user dir):Library:Logs:DiagnosticReports; attach that to the bug report as well.

Hmm. I should have looked harder for data files. In the Contents window described before, navigate to Contents:Resources:share, create a new folder "chipcard", and copy the three folders from the attached dmg into the new folder, then try again.
