Bug#687692: libitext-java: Allegedly broken in testing but not in sid

[Niels Thykier]

Package: libitext-java
Version: 2.1.7-3
Severity: serious
Tags: wheezy

Hi,

According to Julius Davies[1], libitext-java in testing is broken due
to an "ABI" change in libbcprov-java (bouncycastle).  Allegedly a "no
change" rebuild against the testing version og libbcprov-java should
solve the issue.  (The alternative would be to allow a new version of
bouncycastle in testing, but that is probably not going to happen).

Furthermore, we would need a libbcprov-java (<< 1.45~) dependency in
the testing version to ensure it is not broken by upgrading
libbcprov-java.
