Package: trousers
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

It was just reading Wouter Verhelst's blog post about buildd maintenance, where
he made mention of the trousers package, and it dawned on me... is there any
point porting trousers to every architecture that Debian supports? Do TPM chips
exist on systems other than Intel/AMD64?

Sure, you get the opportunity to find some weird bugs by building on more
architectures, but I wonder if it's worth it? I wonder how many other packages
are utterly pointless on non-Intel/AMD64 architectures?
