ok, that patch works with dev-libs/nspr-4.6. i will add changed patch for <dev-libs/nspr-4.6.
Created attachment 73564 [details, diff] for <dev-libs/nspr-4.6 reason: dev-libs/nspr-4.6 got its libs under /usr/lib/nspr/ <dev-libs/nspr-4.6 got its libs under /usr/lib/ btw, dev-libs/nss-3.9.2 and dev-libs/nss-3.10 got the libs under /usr/lib/nss/
better than the hacks i did is to use pkg-config to get the libs/headers of nss and nspr. i will add a patch for that and example pkg-config files for nss and nspr because they are not shipped with these packages.

Created attachment 73841 [details, diff] depend on mozilla-nss or firefox-nss instead on dev-libs/{nspr,nss} any reason why it needs to depend on dev-libs/{nspr,nss}?
this should not depend on mozilla/firefox nss/nspr. It is a very bad ideal IMO to depend on either when nss/nspr packages are in the tree.
well, besides that nss issue in general. ;) i want to build openoffice with system xmlsec. xmlsec then needs nss feature - from nss, mozilla-nss or firefox-nss. building openoffice with mozilla or firefox brwoser plugin takes nss from them. xmlsec uses dev-libs/{nspr,nss}. sure this does trouble.
Btw, if you want dev-libs/xmlsec to depend on nspr/nss from tree please fix configure(.in) and xmlsec-nss.pc.in, thanks. At the moment it is impossible to build the nss feature from xmlsec in tree anyway.
Another attempt to fix this as well as bug 114019 the way Mozilla-Herd wants it. I will add diffs to link xmlsec1-nss against system nspr/nss. I had a look on Mozilla Build Configurator. There are now flags for: --with-system-nspr --with-system-nss See: http://webtools.mozilla.org/build/config.cgi It is about time to use them.

Comment on attachment 77896 [details, diff] create pkg-config file for nss Err, it should be: - >=dev-libs/nspr-${NSPR_VER}-r2" + >=dev-libs/nspr-${NSPR_VER}"
Once more... - >=dev-libs/nspr-4.4.1-r2" + >=dev-libs/nspr-${NSPR_VER}-r2" ...it could be cool to edit attached diffs.

New bugreports opened for nspr and nss bump. They include ebuilds and pkg-config files. Depend on them.
In 1.2.9-r1 in cvs. Thanks a bunch!
