the CAPI headers / libs are part of isdn4k-utils.
At least upstream, I don't know how Debian packages this in detail.
They also contain the "capiinit" and "capiinfo" tools,
which play along nicely with "mISDNcapid".

Recently Karsten Keil ensured the mISDN v2 drivers compile with
recent kernels at least up to 4.9+, may be even newer ones.

So basically you should be able to get it up and running.
Regarding chan_lcr for asterisk: It will run with asterik 11.x only
as the internal API changed to much. Configuring lcr + asterisk
was a pain, so I would try other solutions first.

chan_capi might be a good choice if you don't need NT mode
(=act as a ISDN PBX).

Cheers,
Thomas
