devtools package introduces a nice concept of adding dependancies not available in CRAN, into DESCRIPTION file (described in the vignette). However, I have not been able to figure out how to get it to install the dependancies automatically. The vignette linked above certainly hints that is possible and the install command certainly parses for the "remote" (got an error when they were not specified correctly), however, it only installed dependancies from CRAN. Anybody has ideas if there are some parameters I should specify to make the installation automatic?
Thusfar, I have tried install, install_bitbucket and install_local. install managed to download all the dependancies available in CRAN. install_bitbucket did the same and install_local just did not work at all.
