Bug#1057171: libitext5-java: FTBFS with bouncycastle 1.77

[Markus Koschany]

Source: libitext5-java
Version: 5.5.13.3-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs sid
User: apo at debian.org
Usertags: bouncycastle-1.77
X-Debbugs-Cc: apo at debian.org

Dear maintainer,

libitext5-java fails to build from source with bouncycastle 1.77. The reason
is the removal of long deprecated methods. The (hopefully) relevant
error message from the build log.
