I need to install one package. Where do I get dependencies for Ubuntu 16.04.3 x64?

Following dependencies are not found.

    The make output onlny shows warnings, and it shows that headers for opal were found (somehow), so what's the problem?

  • I think i solved it. It was installed apt-get install libopal-dev, then applied make and it confused me with all those output of WARNING, i get scared when i see WARNING's. Now i checked back and i do see that i have the binary # ls Makefile README.md doc sipcmd src.

    Well, you do have libopal-dev installed somehow. You might have disabled the universe repo after it was installed. See if you have: askubuntu.com/a/378565/158442

Generally speaking: Dependencies for packages can easily be found for supported packages by reviewing the appropriate page in Ubuntu Package Search.

Specifically speaking: The Ubuntu dependencies for the tmakkonen/sipcmd project (last updated November 2016) you've linked to are listed as libpt-dev & libopal-dev both of which are available after enabling the Universe repository as indicated by @muru in a comment above. Once you have enabled the required repository for the packages you need, your apt-get install commands will work as advertised.

Following worked

make outputs are just WARNING (which was confusing).

$ cd /root
$ apt-get install libopal-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/tmakkonen/sipcmd.git
$ make

$ ./sipcmd -P sip -u 244xxx -c 1234 -w sip1.nomado.eu -x "c0012127773456;ws2000;d**;w200;h;j4"

Description:

- login to 244xxx with password 1234 at sip1.nomado.eu
- call 0012127773456
- wait for 2000 ms
- send DTMF : * * 
- wait for 200 ms
- hangup
