This does not seem to work if the package had 'Depends' or 'Imports' as well. What is the correct way to install a local package, so that its dependencies are pulled from CRAN? >> 2. use tools::package_dependencies() to find the (non-recursive) >> dependencies.

In summary, it is not quite trivial to do this correctly, if you look at devtools:::install_deps and and devtools:::parse_deps, it is not 10 lines of code. Anyway, I can just take the code from devtools or use their unreleased version.
