Description of problem: Makefiles and the like use the output of "nss-config --libs" to determine which libraries to search. Several routines have moved to libnssutil in the current version of nss, but nss-config does not mention this library. Consequently, firefox, and presumably other packages, fail to install from the source rpm. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nss-3.12.0.3-0.8.1.fc8.i386 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Type: nss-config --libs Actual results: -Wl,-rpath-link,/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -lssl3 -lsmime3 -lnss3 Expected results: -Wl,-rpath-link,/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -lssl3 -lsmime3 -lnss3 -lnssutil3 Additional info: Patch to nss-config script attached.

Sorry I've overlooked this when upgrading to 3.12. Thanks for reporting the bug. In addition to nss-config we should update nss.pc, too. I'm building an updated package right now.
