One more thing: even though the build-dep is updated, the binary
asterisk package that is built, still gets a "Depends: libpri1.0
(>=1.4)", so one can upgrade Asterisk without upgrading libpri. I
haven't tested this, but I imagine that this could break things.

The actual problem is in the libpri package, that ships a 'shlibs' file
with this version. Perhaps I should file a bug against libpri?
