Yes, that's the usual way. But I don't want to do that. This package
was orphaned when I took it over 2 days ago. I took it because I
wanted to update it to the newest version. But the upstream renamed
their software name in their last release. Therefore I will need to
submit a new Review Request and obsolete the old package. So I really
don't want to deal with the old package with the old name now.

And how about the bouncycastle-mail problem? I don't think that one is
packaging related.
