I don't know when the 3 suffix was added. It may have been due to versioning at some time but if I recall correctly we keep the 3 suffix to avoid a name class with with the other nss package (name switch service I believe). Bob or Kai can set me straight on this matter. Another thing that puzzles me if that this is a problem on F-13 but not on F-12.

For any update or release set that's composed with a package that explicitly requires a compat arch of nss-softokn-freebl (such as glibc, libpurple, pam_pkcs11, etc.), it will get pulled in via dependency resolution. F-13 updates has none of these, so it doesn't. We could add some hacks to mash to get it pulled in, but I must ask... why do all the NSS/NSPR libraries version their libraries in the library name instead of the so version (i.e., libfreebl3.so instead of libfreebl.so.3)?
