TBOOT itself does not depend on TrouSerS. This library is only required
to build policy generation tool - lcptools. If you call 'make' inside
tboot directory, not from repository root, you don't have to install
TrouSerS.

There is a new version of that tool - lcptools-v2 that does not depend
on TrouSerS. In next TBOOT release I am going to mark lcptools as
depreciated and exclude it from building process, so there will be no
dependency on TrouSerS any more in TBOOT.
