Hello, We currently have 3 source packages for NSS (nss-util, nss-softokn, and nss), split from upstream release tarball. This splitting was introduced for FIPS certification purposes in RHEL, where only nss-softokn part is certified.
In Fedora, however, this doesn't apply (as we don't certify), and had rather caused troubles, such as upgrade path issues, incomplete buildroot overrides, etc. Therefore we are considering merging those source packages back into a single package[1]. The same set of binary packages will still be produced and they should be compatible with the current ones. The question is, is there any documented procedure to do this kind of package merge safely? I guess at least the unnecessary packages (nss-util and nss-softokn) would need to be retired. Suggestions appreciated.
