% sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-desktop-full ros-indigo-nmea-msgs ros-hydro-sound-play
% sudo apt-get install libnlopt-dev freeglut3-dev libssh2-1-dev

Install Velodyne Driver dependencies

% sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
% mkdir -p ~/ros_drivers/src

% catkin_init_workspace
% git clone https://github.com/ros-drivers/velodyne.git
% cd ~/ros_drivers 
% catkin_make
% source devel/setup.bash

You cannot build Autoware/ros source code with those OpenCV and Qt5 package, because they are too old. So you have to install newer OpenCV and Qt5.

Install OpenCV

You can download source code from here.

% unzip opencv-2.4.8.zip
% cd opencv-2.4.8
% cmake .
% make
% make install

Install Qt 5

Document is here.

First you have to install Qt5 dependencies.

% sudo apt-get build-dep qt5-default
% sudo apt-get install build-essential perl python git
% sudo apt-get install "^libxcb.*" libx11-xcb-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libxrender-dev libxi-dev
% sudo apt-get install flex bison gperf libicu-dev libxslt-dev ruby
% sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libxcursor-dev libxcomposite-dev libxdamage-dev libxrandr-dev libfontconfig1-dev
% sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev

% git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qt5.git
% cd qt5
% git checkout v5.2.1 # <- Same as Ubuntu 14.04 'qtbase5-dev'
% perl init-repository --no-webkit # <- webkit is very too large
% ./configure -developer-build -opensource -nomake examples -nomake tests # And accept the license 
% make -j # You may take a few hours
% make install
% sudo cp -r qtbase /usr/local/qtbase5

This page could help you when make returns error.
