well, obviously the firefox profile is used because NSS wants to find
its certificates for digital signing.

I would also argue that it shouldn't request "w" permissions, but "r" is
expected.

I also suggested using ~/.pki/nssdb but...

16:41 < _rene_> is there any plan to be able to use ~/.pki/nssdb? (see 
https://wiki.mozilla.org/NSS_Shared_DB_And_LINUX)
16:41 < _rene_> instead of the mozilla profile?

LibreOffice 6.0.6 spies on my Firefox keychain when opening MS documents
16:43 < mst___> _rene_, if there's some UI for users to add their certs to that 
location then sure
16:44 < _rene_> one can do so without a UI? not everything needs a UI?
16:44 < _rene_> at least make it honour that path in addition
16:45 < _rene_> mst___: users nowadays also don't use firefox :)
16:48 <@thorsten> _rene_: thought nss can only use one path?
16:49 < _rene_> no idea, can't one initialize nss two times and use one 
instance for firefox and the other for that one?
16:49 < _rene_> I mean, there must be more application not relying only on 
firefox?
16:50 <@thorsten> we had similar issues with thunderbird vs. firefox cert 
stores,
16:50 < _rene_> mmh
16:50 <@thorsten> IIRC the suggestion was for users to set the proper env var,
16:50 <@thorsten> and we're off the hook?
16:50 <@vmiklos> or just set their preferred path in LO, using tools -> options
16:51 < _rene_> but MOZILLA_CERTIFICATE_FOLDER if you mean that will expect a 
firefox profile and not work with ~/.pki/nssdb, will it?
16:52 <@vmiklos> you would have to check, possibly both just contain files like 
certX.db and keyY.db, so perhaps works out of the box

16:52 < _rene_> ah, right, there's the "Options", didn't know
16:54 < _rene_> ok, related to this:
16:54 < _rene_> why does LO request w permissions?
16:54 < _rene_> r should simply suffice, shouldn't it?
16:55 < _rene_> or is this nss actually opening it? (I guess so...)

16:56 <@vmiklos> i guess ideally it should be read-only, right.
