it should be buildable outside of NSS so can ship as a separate package.
You might try building it locally to see if it resolves the issues for
you. It resides at https://github.com/kdudka/nss-pem
I had to modify an include path, and it links against some static libs
(libfreebl.a, libnssb.a, libnssckfw.a) that are not included in the
current Debian libnss3 packages, so a non-trivial packaging effort.  And
because certmonger appears to use nss directly, linking against a
different libcurl variant is also probably not an option.

There are other issues too - the default cert store path of
/etc/httpd/alias is still used in the deb package, however the correct
path is /etc/apache2/nssdb.
Good stuff, neatly hardcoded in src/dogtag.c. Thanks for pointing this
out, I'll get that fixed at least..

And as you noticed, packaging nss-pem is not a trivial task because of
the way it uses private NSS api's that the libnss maintainer refuses to
make public.. OpenSSL, anyone? :P

We are working on it :) in future IPA may need only openssl
