Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.2.10.dfsg-3
Severity: important
Hello Debian VoIP Team,
There is a circular dependency between asterisk and
asterisk-bristuff|asterisk-classic:
asterisk :Depends: asterisk-classic (= 1:1.2.10.dfsg-3) |
asterisk-bristuff (= 1:1.2.10.dfsg-3)
asterisk-bristuff :Depends: asterisk (= 1:1.2.10.dfsg-3)
asterisk-classic :Depends: asterisk (= 1:1.2.10.dfsg-3)
Circular dependencies are known to cause problems during upgrade,
so we should try to get rid of them.

Bill,
as all three come from the same source and just put together that all
common parts in "asterisk" actually are acompanied by either one of the
real binary packages, this is not very much different than any other
daemon-common package. The sole reason we've put the asterisk with a
Depends as well is that all the init script and other common logic would
largly break if no deamon would be present. That way we'd have lots of
users complaining why /etc/init.d/asterisk won't startup no daemon.
Closing as this is not really a problem as no second source is involved
and thus transitioning always happens for all three in sync.
