Title:
  libnss3-dev  adds epoch 2 to the Version in pkg-config's pc file

Status in nss package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in nss source package in Precise:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Update 2:3.21-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 in Precise bumps the epoch of the
  package.

  However, nss.pc contains:

  Version: 2:3.21

  
  This breaks detection of the version.

  for example, NetworkManager's configure.ac has
  PKG_CHECK_MODULES(NSS, [nss >= 3.11])

  
  With this change, it results in a configure-failure:

  
  checking for NSS... no
  configure: error: Package requirements (nss >= 3.11) were not met:
  Requested 'nss >= 3.11' but version of NSS is 2:3.21


  
  For example Debian also has an epoch of #2, but nss.pc doesn't contain the 
epoch there:

  $ grep Version /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/nss.pc
  Version: 3.21
