Hi,

I'm happy to make whatever changes are necessary to this package, but I'm
not sure what is gained by providing Breaks for every potential package
affected by a bouncycastle upgrade.  It seems to me more proper that if
package X depends on bouncycastle = version Y (which appears to be the case
here) that package should then reflect it, rather than putting X number of
Breaks in the bouncycastle package itself and having to expand that list
each time a new package enters the pool that depends upon it.

Best regards,

-Brian
