I am trying to setup a respository for students with a own package.
Its working fine when the depended packages are already installed with:
install.packages("mypackage",
type="source",repos="http://myrepository.example.com")
but if the the dependencies are not already installed I get the
following error:
ERROR: dependencies 'igraph', 'chron', 'gdata' are not available for
package 'mypackage'
* removing 'C:/.../mypackage'
install.packages from own rpository - depencies

You should add the repositories for the dependencies as well, e.g.:
install.packages("mypackage", type="source",repos=c("http://myrepository.example.com", "http://cran.r-project.org/"))
or make your repository more complete (e.g. if you want to pin certain versions to guarantee interoperability).
Cheers,
