werner added a comment to T5644: Heuristic for default reader detection.

On my new Windows 10 laptop I see a "Windows Hello for Business 1". Thus put everything with "Windows Hello" at the end of the list or skip unless a reader-port is set. IIRC there are device with "virtual" or "Virtual" in their name, they don't make sense for us either. I would also put devices with "SCM" or "Identiv" to the top of the list. In particular the substrings "SPR532" seems to identify the Identiv SPR332 which is what we use here and actualay a suggested reader for GnUPG VS-Desktop.

OpenPGP requires the P < U property and gpg does also. In some parts of the GnuPG we re-calculate the CRT parameters but not in these code paths. Right, a better error message would be appropriate. I'll turn this into a feature request.

The LE web site has instruction on how to do this. However, it is complicated and depends on your system. The intermediate cert you listed is signed by the expired old root cert. If you remove this intermediate cert the other root cert will be found and we are done. The old LE certs had a 4 tier chain and the new one a 3 tier.
