Public bug reported:

Availability: In universe for amd64.

Rationale: Used as part of our signing toolchain for Secure Boot images
in launchpad, so it's de facto supported by Canonical already (and was
written by Canonical).  We would also like to use this at build-time of
the shim-signed package to verify the correctness of the signed binaries
returned to us by Microsoft.  (Currently there are some gaps that result
in me doing this by hand, so this build-dependency may not be added in
time for 12.10 regardless.)

Security: This is a commandline tool, not run as root, so user security
exposure is greatly limited despite its substantial security
implications for Secure Boot as a whole.

QA: there is a test suite in tree that's run at package build time.

Maintenance: Foundations.
