Submit an updated tss2 package for a package review. As far as I can see,
there is no review opened for tss2 now
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=Package%20Review&pr...;.
How to do it is described at
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Review_P...;.
Especially pay attention to:

    If you are not member of the packager group, you need a sponsor. Add
    FE-NEEDSPONSOR to the bugs being blocked by your review request.

>  Does someone approve me? 
Based on the FE-NEEDSPONSOR blocker someone from sponsors should notice your
review request and start to communicate with you in the review request in
Bugzilla. (If that does not happen, approach you a sponsor of your choice as
recommended at
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/How_to_Get_Spons...>)

Once the sponsor finds your package looks good and you understand how to
maintain a package, he/she will sponsor you, i.e. adds you into a packagers
group. Then you will be able to continue from this item on the
Package_Review_Process document:

    When your package passes the review you should use fedpkg to request a Git
    repository for it.

>  Move a git repo somewhere? 
For the purpose of the package review, you need to publish the spec file and
the SRPM file somewhere on the Internet. (Once you become a packager, you can
also use <https://fedorapeople.org/> server for that purpose.)

Once the package review passes, the offical git repository (called dist-git in
Fedora) for the tss2 package will be reopened with completing this item:

    Request a Git repository for the package

Then you will commit the new spec file into the reopen dist-git repository.
