The packaging is fragile, not only due to SONAME changes. As I've pointed
out in a private reply in a conversation about the nss* broken deps, it is
something that would deserve spec file enhancements to prevent future breakage.
Recently, even the nss.pc pkgconfig file's automatic Provides disappeared
unexpectedly(?) because of some %global definitions in the spec file for
specific minimum versions of build requirements.
