Title:
  [MIR] tpm2-tss

Status in tpm2-tss package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Availability]
  Available in Ubuntu universe and Debian unstable, builds for all architectures Ubuntu supports.

  The binaries requested to move to main is libtss2-esys0 and
  libtss2-udev.

  [Rationale]
  An upcoming fwupd release (1.3.1) will be dropping support for using tpm2-tools/tpm2-abrmd and instead will rely upon tpm2-tss.  Previously the tpm2-abrmd and tpm2-tools packages were Recommends that were dropped when merging with Debian.  They could be optionally used.
  TPM support is no longer optional and libtss2-dev package is now a required dependency to build fwupd w/ uefi support now.
  https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/commit/1b5f1da2028189d5f743ea7e6ea5c45ebc09e4b8
  The libtss2-esys0 is a required runtime dependency for fwupd.
  libtss2-udev is a dependency of libtss2-esys0.

  [Security]
  No CVE's, no binaries.

  [Quality assurance]
  No configuration
  No debconf questions
  Long outstanding bugs in Debian:
  Need to avoid conflict with TPM1.2 udev rules package (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=918973)
  Deals with mainstream tpm2 hardware
  Includes watch file
  Doesn't rely upon obsolete packages

  [UI Standards]
  N/A

  [Dependencies]
  libc6
  libgcrypt20
  adduser

  [Standards compliance]
  Just needs to rev up one more version of debian policy.
  No major policy violations.
  Packaging is straightforward

  [Maintenance]
  Propose owning team to foundations, but should generally just sync from Debian.
