main inclusion request: trousers

[Dustin Kirkland ]

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.

ok to promote the source and the binaries libtspi-dev, libtspi1

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

promoted

[Christian Ehrhardt  (paelzer)]

Hi, this 2008 promotion was auto-demoted in Bionic for an upstream change in Strongswan no more holding it in place. That is fixed in the recent Bionic upload triggering this old component mismatch again. I'd ask an AA to re-promote libtspi1 for that in Disco and assigned the AA's to the Disco Task that I added.
