Hello,

Recently I was looking into the Firefox Sync utility. I setup my own
customer server and got my web browser to successfully sync to my
computer and then wanted to look at the database entries. Of course
the data is encrypted which makes sense if I'm going to send my data
to a public server, but in my case not necessary. I wanted to try to
decrypt the information to see what it was storing in the database and
so I've been researching how to do this.

I found references to a python package python-nss which is available
in RPM format, but I'm using Debian and having trouble actually
finding something pre-compiled. I downloaded the source code for the
python-nss tool from
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/python-nss/releases/PYNSS_RELEASE_0_11_0/src/python-nss-0.11.tar.bz2.

When I try to build this I'm getting compile erorr's and they seem to
be caused by a missing definition for "NSSInitParameters". The
reference to this name is in py_nss.h, but i can not actually find
where it is defined in any of the included source code of any of the
required libraries (searched all the code in nss3 and nspr4). Can
anyone provide help on this.

Is this python-nss project actually being maintained? Seems like it
may not be.
