I'm not sure this is needed for now, as it's in our bundled premake5, so if something goes wrong during the build, maybe they are better off bundling and packaging Premake for the distribution?

Summary: [debian] mbedtls needs to be updated[debian] premake5 needs to be updated (mbedtls)

Doesn't look like Debian has packaged premake5 yet, only premake4.

That said, premake5 is a build only dep and the embedded mbedtls won't end up in 0ad at all. So there is no real need to do anything for A27. Definitely for A28 though.

That said s0600204 wanted to update the bundled premake5 for system mozjs support, so this is yet another reason.
