Bug Description
[Impact]
There is an upcoming Azure-related project that would like to support Ubuntu
20.04 LTS out of the box, and one of the requirements is the tpm2-tss-engine package.
The library is available in jammy, but not in focal.
It would be great if it could be uploaded to focal-backports, so that it can
be used out of the box.
[Scope]
Backport from 22.04 jammy to 20.04 focal-backports
[Other Info]
The only change needed to get a working build is to downgrade debhelper-compat from 13 to 12 in debian/control. Everything else works out of the box. Tested on a focal image:
root@focal:~# tpm2tss-genkey /tmp/key -t device:/dev/tpmrm0 -v
Engine name: TPM2-TSS engine for OpenSSL
Init result: 1
Generating the key
Generating RSA key using TPM
Key generated
Writing key to disk
*** SUCCESS ***

Having this functionality in Focal would be an asset to our organization too. We maintain a local compilation of a different OpenSSL TPM engine. Having _any_ OpenSSL TPM engine as part of Focal would eliminate the use of this local build and maintenance.
