[Bug 247590] [NEW] main inclusion request: trousers

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Christian Ehrhardt  (paelzer) has assigned this bug to you for trousers in Ubuntu Disco:

Binary package hint: trousers

Please consider trousers for inclusion into Ubuntu main.
 * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionTrousers

libltspi-dev is a build dependency for ecryptfs-utils, which is under consideration for main:
 * Bug #247400
 * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportEcryptfsUtils

We could, perhaps, remove libltspi-dev as a build dependency for ecryptfs-utils (Patch with Bug #247389).  I requested that Debian do this upstream, but they disagreed.  See:
 * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=490233

libltspi contains support for the Trusted Computing (TPM) chips which
are found on many new laptops and servers, particularly IBM hardware.

If we include support for libltspi, ecryptfs could be used to
cryptographically couple filesystems to particular hardware.
