[Bug 1841595] [NEW] [MIR] tpm2-tss

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Mario Limonciello (superm1):

[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.

** Affects: tpm2-tss (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
