Bug Description

It looks like 3 key modules still build against openssl. The modules are openssl, tspi, and pkcs11-helper. They should all be switched utilize similar functionality available in NSS.

I believe Michal has talked about performing the crypto consolidation, so assigning him for the time being. :)

Hi, I started having trouble with an encrypted home drive and launching encryptfs-mount-privates fails looking for a libnss.so.3 library. Is this related or should I log another bug?

Thanks
