Re: %{_lib} leads to dir not found, whereas lib works fine (firefox-pkcs11-loader)

onepin-opensc-pkcs11.so is an architecture-dependent file. Its content
is different on different processor architectures, and it's also
installed with different pathnames on different architectures.
Therefore anything that refers to the file by its absolute pathname is
also architecture-dependent.

When you insert the pathname into onepinopenscpkcs11.json, that makes
the JSON file architecture-dependent. It must contain different
pathnames on different architectures. A noarch package cannot contain
such a file. "noarch" means that the package's content is exactly the
same on all architectures.

To make a noarch package you must find a way to have a relative
pathname in onepinopenscpkcs11.json – one that contains neither "lib"
nor "lib64" – and install the file in a directory that doesn't depend
on _libdir, perhaps somewhere under %{_datadir}/mozilla.

If that isn't possible, then you must remove "BuildArch: noarch" from
firefox-pkcs11-loader.spec, allowing the package to differ between
architectures, and use _libdir where applicable.
