FYI,
You can search for you package in
http://packages.debian.org
Then you can compare the dependencies in stable/squeeze/sid.
As you can see, the maintainer is working on a new version in unstable,
which don't depends on 'libopenais2' (but 'libopenais3').
Now, if you wonder why that version isn't in squeeze yet, you should
click on the link "Developer Information (PTS)". On that page, click on
the link "Check Why" (in the "problems" section). That page[2]
explains that the new version of asterisk is waiting for package uw-imap
(because asterisk depends on libc-client2007e).
uw-imap can only enter squeeze only once all packages that depends on
it's library have been updated to use the new version.
Unfortunately, some packages haven't been updated and uploaded yet (And
once all those new packages are 10 days old, the transition will be able
to occur).
