There is no bug number because nobody has used the functionality that
this supports.  The second someone would try to use it there would be
one!  There are plenty of relevant fate #s, such as 301351 and then a
really vague one or two.  I could certainly open a new bug.

The packages that perform system-wide certificate authentication
(pam_pkcs11, krb5-preauth-plugin-pkinit or something) use a
system-wide nss database for configuration of pkcs11 packages.  The
postinst scripts for pkcs11 packages should probably add themselves to
this system db, but someone needs to create this database in the first
place.  It may as well be the nss package itself.

So, that means that the tools package is always needed; I asked on one
of the opensuse lists (-gnome?) last week about this, but I guess
you're not on that?  Anyway I don't really care either way what the
package layout is; we just need to make sure that both the libs and
tools are both installed by anyone who needs nss.
