 I propose to update nss for F-11 final
 from current
   nss-3.12.3-3.fc11
 to new
   nss-3.12.3-4.fc11
There is only one single change, at the nss.spec level:
 Added
   Conflicts:        nss < 3.12.2.99.3-5
 statement to the new
   nss-softokn-freebl
 subpackage.
This fixes environments where a user has installed from a F-11 preview
 release and updates to F-11 final. The fix is only needed when a user
 attempts to do selective installs/updates that will trigger update of
 glibc, but skip updates of nss. In such attempts rpm/yum will not know
 that nss updating is necessary and report a conflict. The fix will be to
 manually add nss.rpm to the selective update, and all should be fine.
I can't imagine other scenarios where this fix be necessary.
The fix is not necessary for any update scenarios where the update process
 will pull in the current F-11 nss main package anyway (nss.rpm)
