AttributeError: module 'bcrypt' has no attribute '__about__'

Trapped error, causes no issues, but is thrown none the less. May need to update dependency to resolve.

pyca/bcrypt#684

Recommend moving away from passlib and finding another solution. Passlib in no longer maintained and should be dropped as a dependency.

[oliv10]

Might be able to drop in bcrypt and have same functionality.
