Was able to install Kamailio as sip server on a low resource device 
after reading docs for couple of minutes, I believe it can be done with 
Asterisk and Freeswitch too.

If we want to decrease size in main/, I could suggest to move -dbg pkgs 
to separate folder (separate topic).

Are there any chance of these new deps to move to main/ in next Alpine 
release, if yes, could solve the problem, at-least for now.

Wouldn't suggest, as installing from community/ should not be a problem.
