Description Hanno Zysik (geki) 2006-01-26 06:27:48 UTC 
Instead of shipping an own version of nss in their package use nss on system.

Thanks go to fedora developers.
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/*checkout*/devel/firefox/firefox-1.5-with-system-nss.patch
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/*checkout*/devel/mozilla/mozilla-1.7.12-with-system-nss.patch
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/*checkout*/devel/thunderbird/firefox-1.5-with-system-nss.patch

Are there any other packages depending on this?

I am building firefox with the patch from fedora right now.
Btw, they seem to depend on nss-3.10 and nspr-4.6(.1). I bumped
that versions. No compile-time issues yet. I may be wrong.

I will add some patches to address Gentoo/Portage specifics.
