I need to jump into this one...

Right now, a number of our projects are dependent on the Focal LTS release. These projects cannot wait for 22.04 as they will go to market over the course of the next several months. These same projects make heavy use of TPM 2.0. They do use the TSS 2.0 components which _are currently_ available in Focal. Strongswan has had TSS 2.0 support for quite awhile, and Strongswan is key to making our projects successful.

I can say that I've put the --enable-tss-tss2 into our local Focal build and have been successfully running Strongswan with TSS 2.0 support. I'm uncomfortable with having a local build as it's just another entity to remember to manage across the lifetime of our products. This functionality needs to be enabled in Focal.

Thanks.
