Description Andrew John Hughes 2013-02-22 08:25:02 UTC 
Description of problem:

When installing an updated version of the java-1.6.0-openjdk RPM, my existing nss.cfg file is wiped and replaced with one which breaks my setup, resulting in
java.security.ProviderException: Error parsing configuration errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Both

java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.56.1.11.8.el6_3.x86_64

and

java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.9-2.3.7.1.el6_3.x86_64

suffer from the issue.

How reproducible:

Edit nss.cfg then update java-1.6.0/1.7.0-openjdk

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

nss.cfg is overwritten by the broken version from the RPM.

Expected results:

nss.cfg is left intact. New version is provided as nss.cfg.rpmnew as with java.security.

Good catch. We need to make it config(noreplace).
