Description Manfred Hollstein 2009-12-26 08:54:28 UTC
I've recently installed the packages from the mozilla repository; this
resulted in a new package "mozilla-nss-certs" which I guess deals with
checking certificates.

Due to my - potentially - strange setup (I use a 32-bit Firefox on a
64-bit openSUSE-11.1 system), this resulted in Firefox not being able to
access any https://... site anymore. Trying to replace the 64-bit
version of mozilla-nss-certs with its 32-bit version will probably make
Firefox work again, but I'm afraid, it will kill all the rest of the
64-bit applications which need the nss/ssl functionality. Unfortunately
I cannot install the 32-bit version in parallel either:

# rpm -ivh mozilla-nss-certs-3.12.4-4.1.i586.rpm
    Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
    package mozilla-nss-certs-3.12.4-4.1.i586 is already installed

Extracting it manually using

# rpm2cpio mozilla-nss-certs-3.12.4-4.1.i586.rpm | { cd /; cpio -idvm; }

results in a fully functional Firefox again.

So, what is needed AFAICS is a mozilla-nss-certs-32bit package, which,
for what is worth, is already provided for the base package:
mozilla-nss-32bit.

Thanks for the report. I forgot to add the baselib indeed :-(
Submitted to mozilla (and will follow-up to Factory soon)
