Could you explain more why the dependencies are missing?  
I am assuming you did `Pkg.add` for them (in the right environment)?

As for dealing with unregistered dependencies, I am not sure what the answer is. I have asked related questions twice and you may find [this](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/tracking-changes-for-unregistered-packages/27289) and [this](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/packages-for-my-own-code/) useful.

I ended up writing up my own understanding (imperfect!) [here](https://lhendricks.org/julia_notes.pdf) (corrections welcome).
