Yes, and as all other daemon-common do not lead to circular dependencies, so should asterisk. circular deps break assumptions about the order in which packages are configured which is often crucial for daemons. Apt and dpkg does not know about source packages so being part of the same source make no difference. > 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 would be a bug: Debian policy 9.3.2. mandate that init script check for the programs being installed.
