@J.C. Jones Can you kindly undo your recent change to the status of this
bug?

@David Woodhouse: p11-kit-trust.so only handles CA certificates; it does
not pull in the PKCS#11 security module configuration, which is stored
in the system-wide NSS database. This is required where smart cards are
used (using security modules such as OpenSC, either directly or via the
p11-kit-proxy security module). This was part of the issue reported with
this bug.

As it stands now, the PKCS#11 module configuration still has to be
manually added to every Firefox/Thunderbird profile after the
application is first launched by the user and the NSS databases are
created at that time. Changes to the system-wide NSS database won't
propagate (for example, if the system administrator replaces the CoolKey
module with OpenSC).
