Dear Maintainer,
firefox-esr (both the latest version 78.8.0esr-1 and the latest testing
version 78.7.0esr-1) depends on libnss3 (>= 2:3.53.1~), but that is not
sufficient. https fails completely with libnss3 2:3.58-1. It works with
2:3.61-1 (the current testing version). I didn't try any other versions
of libnss3.
Evidence:
When I updated firefox-esr from 78.3.0esr-2 to 78.7.0esr-1, https
stopped working. The firefox developer console showed that it was
making the TCP connection but not getting past the TLS setup. I tried
several versions of firefox-esr:
78.8.0esr-1 broken
78.7.0esr-1 broken
78.6.1esr-1 broken
78.5.0esr-1 worked
78.3.0esr-2 worked
Eventually I suspected libnss3, which was at version 2:3.58-1 this whole
time. I updated it to 2:3.61-1 (the current testing version), then
retried firefox-esr 78.7.0esr-1 (the current testing version), and that
worked.
