I asked Patrick about this last week, it's an old dependency that was
never cleaned up. On a previous generation of HW they used to use a
TPM1 to store bits used by robosignatory but it was never a direct
dependency. That's no longer the case so it can be cleaned up.
Ah, that's good to know! I still intend to maintain trousers for at
least the next couple of years - but the less dependent packages, the
better.
