** Description changed:

- I upgraded "ca-certificates" and "light-themes" and afer a reboot my
- wireless networking was gone. Turns out "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
- gnu/libnss3.so" wasn't there anymore. After restoring that file
- everything works fine again. Probably related to the other new bugs for
- this package?
+ A bug in version 20110912ubuntu1 of the ca-certificates-java package,
+ combined with an update to the ca-certificates package, resulted in the
+ incorrect removal of the libnss3.so library from the filesystem of users
+ who had these packages installed.  As this library is a dependency of
+ core functionality, including the NetworkManager service which manages
+ networks on the desktop, it is critical to restore this library to the
+ system before rebooting; otherwise users may not have the network access
+ needed to fix the problem.
+ 
+ Users affected by this issue will see the following output on their
+ system:
+ 
+ $ dpkg -s libnss3 | grep Status
+ Status: install ok installed
+ $ ls /usr/lib/*-gnu/libnss3.so
+ ls: cannot access /usr/lib/*-gnu/libnss3.so: No such file or directory
+ $
+ 
+ Affected users should run the following command to restore the deleted
+ library:
+ 
+ $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall libnss3 libnss3:i386
+ 
+ Users should then ensure they upgrade to version 20110912ubuntu2 of the
+ ca-certificates-java package to prevent any further library deletions.
