RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Kashyap Chamarthy 2010-06-11 18:23:44 UTC 
Description of problem:

NSS dbs does not get created when mod_nss is installed(as nss-tools are not already installed). 
Instead, mod_nss is silently installed  without NSS databases under /etc/httpd/alias.
Perhaps it's just a missing dependency('Requires: nss-tools' ?) in mod_nss spec file.

Version-Release number:
mod_nss-1.0.8-7.el6.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install mod_nss without "nss-tools" package already on the system

Actual results:
mod_nss silently installs without complaining about missing dependency.

Expected results:
mod_nss should also pull-in the missing dependency(nss-tools)
