Hi,

I'm building the 3.12.5 with NSPR .tgz from Mozilla FTP on a Fedora system.
Yeah, I noticed this was a problem before, but I was fine with just NISTP256
to 521 except you're saying the previous command won't work in Basic ECC
mode.  Wait, you said RPM, as in not building from source from Mozilla?
I've tried the src-rpm with the ECC flags and had no luck, but was
successful with the Mozilla .tgz for just Basic ECC.  I guess now that
you've established NSS compiled with "NSS_ENABLE_ECC" and
"NSS_ECC_MORE_THAN_SUITE_B" should work using softoken, what are the
workarounds to get the source from .tgz to build?

Thanks,
Kai
