This one shouldn't happen. Asterisk should only provide logrotate files
for each of asterisk-classic and asterisk-bristuff. The asterisk dummy
package itself shouldn't have any logrotate at all.

This one is fixed in SVN. It'll be rolled out with the next upload.
Thanks for spotting it.

This one aswell shouldn't happen. The init script is supposed to be
provided only by asterisk-classic and asterisk-bristuff.

What *might* have happened is that the old asterisk config files haven't
been purged and we might need to take care of this. I'll look to this
issue, but the new deb doesn't provide these files for sure.
