Hi devel,

Question: should we use libnspr4 or libnspr4-0d ?

if we are to use libnspr4-0d, should we change the dependency of sunwcsl?
if we are to use libnspr4, how do we go about building the newest 
version? (seems like we want libnspr4-0d)

Of note, searching for libnspr4 in debian packages yields that libnspr4 
was last available in oldstable. libnspr4-0d seems to be the newer 
alternative.

    
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=libnspr4&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all

Background:

    I'm attempting to rebuild quite a few packages but a lot come down 
to needing a working java implementation. This comes down to needing 
libnspr4 or libnspr4-0d depending on where you are coming from. I can 
`apt-get source nspr` and build the packages just fine but nspr builds 
libnspr4-0d. According to the ubuntu website:

    https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.3-0ubuntu3

the firefox source package builds libnspr4. `apt-get source firefox` 
gets firefox-2.0.0.6 and this source package knows nothing about 
creating libnspr4.

Thanks,
-Tim
